cable length restrictions

There is a restriction of 98" on the sum of the two cables and one of the cables cannot exceed 39". So if I need 89" that only leaves me 9" to go from the battery to the rear hub. The sum of my two cables needed is 102" with the battery mounted on the frame up near the handle bars. Also there is a console and sensor that triggers the throttle and actually acts as a hybrid and recharges the battery when you actuate the brake lever. I needed to have one of the cables going from there to the battery in order to use the throttle/hybrid feature. The long wheel base on the stratus was what was giving me problems. I have since figured out a way to do this. I will mount the battery to the back of the seat and then I only need 75" and 23" respectively for the two cables. Additionally, the sensor needs to be near the console but it only has to be attached to the brake cable and not the brake lever as I had been previously told. But thanks for the output!
