I purchased an 87 last year. It is in overall pretty good shape, but the cables have started to deteriorate. I'm replacing them all, but I cannot find anyone who has the choke cable in stock. I'm getting most of them from MotionPro, but it looks like they no longer carry the en450 choke cable (which is in pretty tough shape). Anyone have a lead on one? It seems like most people that usually stock them are sold out.

Shame the 454 rider site seems to have stopped working on parts cross reference as it also listed the other bikes that used the same part. This usually made the online search easier as typically a bunch of ex500 listings would share the same part without saying so. Is the site working for anyone else? Nothing comes up once I click onto category or any submenu etc..
Also worst case you could improvise a short length of choke at the carbs end. I hardly ever needed more than a touch or it flooded.

It isn't a huge deal since the choke is so easy to reach by hand. I can just pull it a bit with my finger while seated, but I'd like to get everything working the way it should. Thanks for the link BTW. I wasn't aware of that site. Hopefully the search starts working again.

I believe that the VN750 uses a choke cable with similar fitment. You'd wanna double check for similar lengths though.
