throttle cable too short for dirtbike bars
i have a 2002 600 gsxr streetfighter with dirtbike bars and when i turn right the throttle sticks, the cables are too short, does anybody know if there are any other cables off other bikes that will fix this problem

Turning the bars to the right shouldn't pull the cables any if their routed right i don't think.
I had the same problem last week with my F4i and after 2 hours of frustration of rerouting cables it ended up being the cables were adjusted too tight. After loosening them up a bit it turned like butter.
Have you looked @ the cable ajustment?

Re: throttle cable too short for dirtbike bars
Yeah man it pretty easy to route cables tha wrong way. There are alot of cables avail that are longer. just go to tha shop and ask em 4 somin longer. I think a 919 cable fits? and they got db style bars so you should get tha length u want. just check tha ends @ tha shop (they should have good pics on their comp) make sure they match up and roll!

The throttle cables should fit fine. A slight adjustment (loosen them a little) might be needed to get them to work. The clutch cable could be a problem and if that's the case then check out clutch cable part number 0652-0010 from Parts Unlimited. (No dash needed).
