Exclamation ***? Can't find clutch cable!?

Hey, all...

I posted a few weeks back because the clutch cable on my '72 T100 Daytona 500 is fraying...so far I have been totally unable to find a replacement. The only places I've found that purport to stock them are OUT of them.

Anybody? I love my '70 Honda 450, but I'm REALLY missing the Triumph right now!

HELP!

Thanks...

Order a universal brake / clutch cable and make up a clutch cable. Otherwise, just call all the suppliers ... somebody has to have a cable ... Moore's, Rask, British Only, MAP ... What about ebay?

Moore's lists 2 D1994 clutch cables in stock. That's for a unit 500, '64 on and, according to the parts manual, is correct for your bike. Keith Moore is in California, ships quickly, is easy to deal with and I think the cable was listed at about $15 ... Call him up 714.447.4402
