Changed mine for teflon lined outers with Stainless inners.
Venhill Engineering and/ or Speedy Cables in the UK supplied them.
Getting the right amount of friction in the throttle box then becomes more
important, as it is assisted less by the contribution from the friction in
the cables
Getting the standard throttle box to work properly is another story.
