Copper Cables?

I have a recollection of seeing copper cable throttles, clutch etc. I had thought that this was not just a custom application, but google and I can't seem to work in harmony to get me the results I am looking for.

Does anyone have any recomendations. I found a place that sells the cable cover.

I have seen the cables you are talking about but can't remember where. If I come across the info I will PM you.

That would be a pretty cool mod to do. I saw some copper oil lines on a bike in the for sale section, but they were custom. Id like to know as well.

That would look cool. As high as copper is now days, keep it locked up, people are stealing it off of everything. It would look sick though!!!

RE: Copper Cables?

One alternative is to get the vinyl cables and cover them with the copper loom, and follow that off with some clear heat shrink tubing.

Depending on the tightness of the loom, it might look best to do this over some steel cables, but I don't know if the benefit is worth the extra cost.
