I have been at the honda dealer all week trying to find a cable that will work, with no luck. We tried damn near every honda reverse cable there is lol.

I wonder if that cable will work with one of the asv hotstart levers? I have asv levers and bet it would look sweet with that on there also, AND be way easier than the knob.

I am using it with a hot start lever that attaches to the master cylinder, don't remember the brand. Way easier than the knob.
