[QUOTE="David Wardingley, post: 116035, member: 4511"] Thanks all for the replies, I have been looking at the cable routing as you suggest and mindful of the fact that the bends in the cable should be as gentle as possible. My cable comes out of the timing chest via a tube? Then bends upward on a very tight bend before it meets the battery case, up under the tank and to the lever. To get a more gradual bend it seems sensible to take the cable actually under the battery box and do a gradual u bend somewhere near the rear mudguard and then the normal route up along the underside of the tank etc. My next question is how does one get the cable off the timing chest end? It appears as if my cable could do with being 17” longer!!!!! Although I need it off to send to Venhill as a pattern . Regards David [/QUOTE]
