Mikuni Install Issues
Hey guys trying to install Mikuni 42 on a 98 Sportster and the stock choke cable (which the kit says to reuse) seems about 1.5" too long? It sticks out about 1.5" past the choke cable mount once installed in the Mikuni. Is there a shorter choke cable available or am I missing something?

it's ok if the choke cable has an ark to it. it doesn't have to be straight. its like any other cable, just cant bend it at extreme angles

I ordered the mikuni cable but I have a feeling it's the same length as stock. shocked that there isn't a length option?
