1. My custom '85 K100RS needs a new transmission.
   
2. I purchased a 1993 K1100LT transmission w low miles to replace it with.
   
3. Because the bike has a custom frontend the length of the OEM clutch cable (part #32732324960 - 1,625mm long) is far longer than I need and there is a lot of extra cable wrapped under the tank to keep it out of site, but I'm guessing this a poor solution.
   
4. There is another OEM clutch cable (part #32732324955 - 1,510mm in length) which shortens things at least some.
   
5. I would like to use the shorter one, but was informed that shorter cable only works with K1100RS transmission and specifically not the LT transmission I have. Is this true?
   
6. Is there another clutch cable out there that I could use that I'm not aware of? (I have attempted to make a custom clutch cable which was a total fail)
