HOW TO ORDER CUSTOM BARNETT CABLES

Here at Barnett we specialize in making custom cables as well as stock replacement cables. While the majority of the cables we make are for Harley Davidson models, Metric Cruisers, and Vintage motorcycles, we can make a wide variety of cables for many different types of motorcycles and custom “one-off” applications. We also have a variety of cable housings available which include traditional black vinyl, Classic Stainless Steel braid with clear coat, Platinum Series with bright silver plated braiding and clear coat, and Stealth Series black on black. In addition, we offer a “High Efficiency” inner wire for use on clutch cables. This inner wire is nylon coated and is lubed with a silicone lube to help reduce clutch lever effort.  

How to order custom cables for Harley Davidson and Metric Cruiser models

The most common request we receive is for over or under stock length cables for various handlebar conversions. While we cannot tell you what length will work for each individual application, we can make the cables any length that you require. The simplest way to order custom length cables is to simply tell us how many inches over (+) or under (-) the stock length you need the cables to be and what type of casing you desire.

To order, please follow these steps:

1. Find the cable listing for your model in the Barnett catalog or on our website.

To order a specific casing type, simply change the first three numbers of the part number to one of the following:

101= Traditional Black

102= Stainless braid w/clear coat

104= Stainless braid with Carbon coat

106= Platinum Series bright silver

"HE”= Designates “High Efficiency” inner wire (for clutch cables only). To order a High Efficiency clutch cable, please specify this at the time of ordering.

2. In order to have the cable made in the over or under length and casing type you desire, simply add it to the end of the part number and/or specify the length at the time of ordering.

 

How to order for custom applications or applications not listed in catalog

 If you are in need of a custom cable or a cable that we do not list in our catalog, you will need to do one of the following:

  1. Send us your original cable(s), if possible. We will duplicate the cable per your instructions. If you need any measurements of the cable changed, specify clearly what you need done.
  2. Send us a detailed drawing of what you require. Be sure to include all measurements and specifications. Please refer to the Custom Cable Measuring Guide in our catalog or on our website to see exactly how we measure our cables. Specify what type of casing that you desire. On Harley Davidson/Custom V-Twin applications, be sure to let us know what type of carburetor you are using and what type of hand controls (if other than stock).
