Try www.apexcycle.com. I just got one from there. Seems to be just fine, but it is black.

if you could give some feedback on the quality of this cable i'd greatly appreciate it! i've seen mixed reviews of apex's products throughout the forum. Am considering buying a full cable set from them , along with the speedo cable too. Just want to ensure it's not money wasted. Thanks !

Other than the color, it seems to be just fine. I won't have the restoration completed for another week or so. Just waiting on the chrome. The length is right, it even has the extra cover like the original. I hope that helps.
