I have a spare SS one that has the same drive & speedo as my '92 851.

If you know how long yours is (?!) it might do the trick?

Cheers

Paul,

I've just measured it, and mine doesn't seem to be very long at 830mm (approx) between crimped fittings, let me know if it's about the same, and what you're after for it and I'll stick summik in the post.....

Rats, the SS one is 80mm shorter overall so probably won't reach.

It was worth a try. Have you tried MotoRapido as Steve Hillary is a bit of a 888 nut and might have one lying around somewhere?

He is on 01962 877996

Cheers, Paul

The SS cable fits fine. in fact its better than the standard one because its shorter. The standard one has a sharp bend about 6" from the drive (almost certainaly where it broke) both mine did!! SS one takes that out
Hope you get sorted.
