Suzuki gs850g 1981. In need of shorter clutch and throttle cables.

[portdave]

So I dropped the handlebars on my 1981 850g but now the throttle and clutch cables are too long no matter how I try to reroute them. does anyone have any suggestions on where I could find shorter cables for this bike?

Thanks,

This info might help regarding throttle lenghts off my 650

measuring outer to outer housing...
58300-45221 measures 39.5 inches
58300-47050 (for 81 gs550tX) measures 36.75

edit/update. Found my clutch cable length
58200-34X03. (For gs650GL) is 54.5 inches over outer casing.

The clutch cable from a 1000S is shorter and fits perfectly on the 850. Same thing for the '80 1000S throttle cable, only I think it's been discontinued. The throttle cable from a 650M should work, that model used CV carbs and lower bars.

Maybe the cables for the 1990s GSX750F Katana?
