Hi All

or a good supplier.

Could you not measure it using a length of electrical flex, routing it where the cable will go,  then send off for one.
Where's that 10mm socket got to?

I arbitrarily picked a K4 US model and looked at DS and they list an OEM cable for £10 (plus VAT etc).
Presumably if they list it for the US bikes it is the correct length for the higher bars.
Don't know if there are differences between the various 750 models but possibly worth checking, surely easier than getting one made.
