Just select the 3500mm MTB cable on the drop down menu. $12 for the cable. Might as well snag some V-brake levers and housing while you're already paying for shipping.

www.terrycable.com 35.00 and its got the right ends on it alredy, and it is the right length. When you call them and say trim cable for a jet ski, they know what you need. nice cable and I havent heard about them breaking.

been doin some thinkin,
i have an old cylinder that needs new sleeves, so i was gonna re-sleeve it and have it bored to around 800cc. i was also gonna lower the port timing, and mill my stock head. so what if i milled the bottom of the cylinder which would lower the stock ports, and not open them up so i wouldnt have to worry about losing the amount of air being compressed. This would also raise compression. So the question is, would milling it enough to make any noticeable difference make the squish too small? has anybody done this before?

I asked a similar question when I was porting my motor. I didn't have any intention of milling the bottom of the cylinder but instead lowering the port window a tad instead of raising it.
The basic conclusion that was presented to me was that the port window on a 750 was below the top of the piston anyway so it wouldn't do any good to lower it more. Plus, the piston comes right to the edge of the top of the cylinder.
Secondary notes to keep in mind...
I believe if you ran flat top pistons you could get away with a smaller squish.
Resleeving a kawi cylinder is not cheap like a yamaha cylinder!
Might want to ask in the aftermarket forum on all this though as I'm no expert.

If it isn't destroyed in removal, be sure to send him the thicker gasket with the advance plate.

little update,
got my -2 rn pole:Banane09: and bracket setup for 2 inch breather. so i need to know, if i plug up the air intakes on top ( both sides are opened up cuz i got it from a racer) and cut open the holes in the back of the hood, is that enough air? and sorry for the crappy phone pics

hey i got an extra hood that i am working on turning the stock air intakes into handholds and cutting new air holes in the back above the dash next to the hood latch like a RN SJ hood. I am also cutting the round pertrustion (that comes off above the rails) and making it more flat which will close those air intakes as well. But the liner i am using has the front liner cut where the hood meets the pole. Hard to explain. so i personally think will be enough air. If i had a camara around here i would snap some pics. I got one side cut.
Also i havnt put the timing adv on yet. I Dont want to pull my exhuast off again but when i do, do you still just use that o ring? early in your thread someone mentioned a thicker gasket
