Gear push/pull cable: Where to buy?
Hi,
Ive decided to go for a push/pull cable system for my ZX10 gear change. Has anyone a similar setup on their car and if so know a good place to buy
this type of Cable?

I spent a lot of money on an "aircraft quality" cable from one of the respected kit car companies, which failed after a few thousand miles
of use.
I then bought a cheapo cable from ebay, designed to turn outboard motors on boats? I think it was described as a morse or teleflex cable?
Try
this?

I got the cables from a mondeo for mine (cheap from the scrappies, but hell of a job to get out). Note - not all mondeos have cable change
