Whats the most commonly used clutch cable on an MK with a 919rrv fireblade engine?
And where might I get one, mines just snapped.

Venhill do a very good quality D.I.Y cable kit for about £15 for clutch and approx £10 for throttle.

The kit comes with several different adjusters and several solder type nipples

I'm using Venhill cables from eBay for my MK Indyblade

I use Venhill for my Locost after suffering past failures. Be aware that the £15 cable is just a short piece though and in my case and Gav's case who's car I helped a little with we both needed the longer piece which was around £35.
Still, it's 100% better though. More smoother and driveable.

I've used Venhill for mine. Time will tell if the cable is up to handling the uprated clutch springs. MNR do one that is 5mm thick for about £50.

Matched up the old one to the nearest thing at Exhausts Unlimited £15.36 but had to make a new shackle to fit onto the clutch arm with some grub screws in to grip the cable. SORTED
