Thottle cable fireblade carbs on zetec

OK the fireblade carbs are up and running on the zetec, now to the throttle cable of which i have no prblem making up.

BUT

The carbs sit high on the zetec head making top entry to the carbs a very tight radius for the cable, i need some input from other blade carb users on CEC's please.

I'm thinking it might be possible to feed the throttle cable from underneath but i'm having a bit of trouble getting my head around it, any pics or ideas very much appreciated.

tight radius

can you not use a similar system as on bike cables, make a tight bend with tube and fix between outer cable and original cable sleeve anchor?

Yup, if i cant access from the underneath then the 90 deg tube option was next.

Thanks very much for the replies
