Default Cable

2001 CBR600F4i -----Just picked up this bike on the weekend.. Its awesome.. But, does anyone know if there is a mod that works to move the cable that blocks the view to the speed display?? I havent looked at it too much yet, so I might just solve my own problem, but just curious if anyone has solved it already.. P.S.. I knew of this before I bought it.. Its not a big deal.. just wondering if its an easy fix

Thanks

alot of guys use a coat hanger, bend it and spray paint it, me well I'm lazy and ordered one off this website, $12 shipped isn't going to hurt my wallet..and it makes a huuuuge difference, no more bobbing my head up or down to see how fast i'm going.

lol... i agree.

but i would never buy it. even though it's only $12, I'd rather not wait for it to ship and pay for it than just do the clotheshanger trick.

No it's fine. It'sno different than installing a washer really. I used a coat hanger and just backed the bolt off enough to get it around then tightened it back down.
