1973 Six Day Choke Cable

[Harris]

I need a very good used or NOS choke cable for a 1973 Six Day 125 restore project. I thought I had a good one but I was wrong. It is the choke that used the Magura choke handlebar level to activate the choke. Any sellers or suggestions.

Hi,
I recently had the same dilema. That grey-colored cable is very tough to find. I went to a bicycle shop and bought 4' of 5mm grey cable. It was in stock. As I recall, one end already had a ball soldered on and just needed to be filed down to fit in the choke plunger. The handlebar end doesn't need soldering as it is held in place w/ a screw. Good luck.
