Gixxer clutch cables always suck... solution?

I'm going to get a good lever... but is anyone re-routing the cable to get the sick bends out of it? Got a source on a better cable too?

05 - 600

Actually ... the best cable I ever put on my gixxer was a stock f4i cable. It was a lot smoother than the stock gixxer and it doesn't have the 90° bend off the perch, which helps with hb placement.
