Does anyone know the length of the stock throttle cable for the VTX1800C.

Thanks if it isn't too much trouble.....Some one in the VTXOA board replied but I am one of those that like to have several correct answers.......Be my Luck I order one too short.

Marigold, just curious, since you ride an 1300 why are you wanting to know the length of the 1800 cables?

I changed my handlebars when I first got my bike. I used 750 Areo cables. Alittle short but worked. 

Since throttle cables were damaged in the accident I had last Sunday I decided this would be a good time to replace with longer cables...Needed the length of the 1800 because I was debating on just replacing with 1800 stock or SS Braided.

Do the 1800 fit the 1300 since one is hydraulic and the other is not?  Just curious.

I'd imagine she is looking for longer cables than her stockers Pete. Just something to do while the knees are blue!

Pete, are you saying that your Hardley, with its cable-operated clutch, has a hydraulic throttle? :P

(Gotcha!!!)

Marigold, how long before you think you'd be ready for a meet at Nacogdoches again? That one last year was pretty good. Wasn't sure when your knees/bike would be ready.

Well snot.  Didn't read the post correctly.  I "saw" clutch instead of throttle.

Duh me with a spoon!
