Thanks, I cross posted in both of these forums. Full step-by-step instructions are in order of course, though I don't know if I'm allowed to do that... pics at the very least.

So back to the subject: is there any way to put this "monstrosity" on a bike? It's a simple square ended cable, so I guess I could find it in a motorcycle shop, but I have absolutely no idea where...

Thanks will try.
