Choke cable wanted

[Dbone]

Can someone with the black choke cable running in front of the engine to the carbs, please measure the outside diameter of that outer cable cover. My cable, although never used, disappeared years ago after a rebuild. I would like to put one back on. Anyone have any extra cable holders? -those flat tabs that hold the outer cable to the cam covers ?

Just trying to tidy up on some misc. missing parts.

Thanks in advance
Dave

Hello Dave,
Wire is normal 0.060" Bowden cable, and outer is 0.250" black sheathed spiral wound cycle brake cable.
Flat tabs are easy to make, just wind them round a drill shank.
