Longer clutch cable

I'm changing the stock street twin bar for a LSL superbike x01 bar and i've found that even rerouting the clutch cable i will need a slightly longer (6-8 cm) cable.
I wouldn't want to make one (because of the quality of the stock ones) so i've searching in the net for a stock (OEM) cable but i haven't found it.
Is there a good quality clutch cable on sale in the net for my ST?

Triumph makes a longer clutch cable for the new Bobber. It is used when fitting the ape hanger bars. Might be available separately.

The accessory requires A9630201, High Handlebar Cable Kit for fitment. - See more at: http://www.triumphmotorcycles.co.uk/accessories/comfort/2015/a9630250-high-handlebar-black?returnUrl=/accessories/landing-page?selectedBikeGenre={83C4B7D0-42EE-4A00-B189-180833DD4240}&selectedBikeModel={24E8AFE4-04DE-4657-B166-0000090403B4}&selectedBikeVariant={CE00EF1C-1EE1-4BC0-A47F-63F3271652B1}&keyWord=&resultsLimit=48&CategorySelection=000000000#sthash.aiB9YsgF.dpuf

The answers to your questions probably lies with a Triumph dealer parts department. Different part number, different length. The Scrambler's bar width is 4.6 cm wider and the bar ends appear to sit above the instrument whereas the Street Twin bar ends appear to be mid instrument.

I think you may have found what you are looking for.

My dealer hasn't been a great help. They only knows about standard fitment tables and they don't want to be disturbed by complicated questions.

I've been watching street scrambler pictures and I'm pretty sure that its cable could be the right option.
I've been searching in http://www.triumphestore.com for that clutch cable part number but Street Scrambler 17 isn't listed yet.

Anyone knows that PN? Even better, anyone knows for sure if it is like the Street Twin clutch cable but a few inches longer?

Moto Trio here in Thailand do all sorts of parts for Triumph and I did notice them selling some 'scrambler' type bars which had cables with them in the pictures on their facebook pictures. Contact them to see if the cables they are selling are long enough and they might be your solution.

I know this is a little late, but I recently spoke to a Triumph rep about clutch cables, and this is what I got.
I can inform you that the Street Scrambler cable T2048870 is 1120mm long, the Triumph America cable T2042574 is 1303.5mm long, and as an extra, the Bobber high bars cable is 1600mm long if that helps.

As far as brakes go, this thread shows someone put some really tall rises on his T100 without having to swap out the brake. He says the stock ones are long enough, and just the clutch needs replacement cables. http://www.triumphrat.net/water-cooled-twins-talk/838122-handlebar-risers-for-2017-t100.html

Resurrecting this thread...

I sent a direct message to the OP, but I think he has not been active in some time.

I am interested in the bar switches the OP has. They are made by Renard. I am wondering how feasible they are. Two issues I see is that the high beam on these is a latching switch while stock is momentary. I am also wondering about the turn signals. On the Renard, they have one on left and one on right, and I guess you would need to install a self-canceling module.
