Speedometer cable for 16H

Hi folks, I am still looking for a speedo cable for my 16H. When searching the net I find cables with a length of 142 cm. But I cannot believe that it has to be that long. Sorry for this somehow stupid question, my bike is not in my office and thus I am not able to identify the correct length. Would be great if someone could provide more clarity on this topic. Cheers! martin

Re: Speedometer cable for 16H

Hello Martin,

The original Norton cables were 25" long.
In your case you need the one with the square end inner cable top end and knurled nut at the top of outer cable.
JJ Cables in UK can certainly help you, likely there are other sources.

cheers,

Rob

Re: Speedometer cable for 16H

Hi Rob,
thanks for the info. 25 inch seems to be the right length - my inner cable has a length of 65,5 cm, the outer shell is slighty shorter.
Actually I did not find the JJ cables website. Speedo cables shown at Feked are longer. Is there any other supplier?
