Default Can someone recommend me a custom cable manufacturer/seller?

I'm after a recommendation for a company that will do longer throttle and clutch cables.

A 929 Fireblade. It's the clutch and throttle cables I'll be after.

I used my local chop shop for extended throttle cables and brake hose. Don't discount your local garages. My throttle cables are brazed and are in low friction outers with adjusters in the middle. Cost was reasonable too.
