    Submit OEM Throttle/Choke/Clutch Cable Lengths on GS's

    For starters idk if this is the correct section for this thread but seemed like the most appropriate based on the options. I'm looking for a Chart of OEM GS throttle/cable lengths. I mean a chart is best case I would even take a couple data points and go from there. My specific case is looking for a shorter throttle cable for my 82' GS650GL

    I have searched quite a bit to no avail and would be delighted to hear that my google-jitsu skills are no good and such a chart already exists!

    So TLDR; does anyone have or know of a list with throttle/choke/clutch cable lengths if not maybe we/I can compile a running list.

        A little late on the reply, the previous owner removed the handle Barr and installed clip-on style under the top half of the triple. I have been looking up handle bars but the diagram seems to a different upper triple where the mounts seem to be built into it triple. I have had little to no success in finding a replacement handle bar mount. I found various 7/8 bars that I like but at this moment it would appear im stuck with the clips. I've included a picture of a tree that is supposed to be from my year/model of bike but mine is different, will update with actual picture from my bike if clarification is needed.
