Speedo cable equivalents - 87 SE50

[breaze]

Looking for a replacement speedo cable and housing for a 1987 Elite SE50. The one I have has a broken cable with part of the cable frozen in the housing. Honda seems to have the cable but not the cable and housing. Wondering if anyone knows of an equivalent cable to use. I'm working on freeing up the cable and re-using my housing, but not looking good.

BTW - the SE50 cable is 41 1/8" long (housing and ends) - not sure about cable. This info doesn't seem to be in Wiki.

Thanks - I will add the measurement you provided into the wiki. It takes a member's extra thought to get us dimensions

Today I took apart my 98 Elite to check out measurement for that model. This cable looks like a good candidate for you
Cable Assembly (including inner) 44830-GS7-020 CABLE, SPEEDOMETER $15.84
Inner cable only: 44831-GN2-930 CABLE (INNER) $5.07

Cable housing + ends is about 41", over all length about 42 1/4". I checked fit of the hub end with an 87 Aero brake panel, and it fits, should be fine with 87 Elite SE50.

Good Luck!

Much obliged - just what I needed.
