Allan,

Clevis pin to the far end of the threaded adjuster is about 21 1/4"

Sheath end cap (pedal end) to the shoulder that seats in the rear brake backing plate is about 11 1/4"...

Would be nice to find something at least 23" and 13" respectively...

Thanks!

Tom a GT750 cable is,,, from the sheath end cap by the pedal side to the shoulder in the brake backing plate,,, 13 7/8 inches long.
That should be good enough for your project with a little extra.
