Hello and Happy Memorial Day!
I have a quick question that I'm hoping somebody will be able to answer. I have a 1980 XS400 Special II with the front drum brakes, and I need a new brake cable. I found an exact OEM cable, but its a little expensive. I know a few of the early 70s XS650s have front drum brakes, and I was wondering if anybody has tried to use the cable available on MikesXS, first cable listed.
After looking around, I think any brake cable that is the right length should work, as long as it has the little nipples on the ends, but please correct my ignorance if this is not true.
