Al,
These pictures show the choke cable setup on my BN7. The main cable  
from the dash is a standard repro.
  I made the cables to the carbs.
  They are all standard motorcycle throttle parts. This consists of   
the Black Sleeving, the End Caps for the sleeving, the 1/16" stranded  
(7X19) Cable, and the Ferrel which is soldered on to the upper end of  
the cable.
An older motorcycle shop will have all the parts. The newer shops tend  
to be like Kmart ,with complete assemblies in little plastic bags.

Good luck

Dave and Daisy








This shows the sleeving pulled back. Note the end cap. Also the ferrel  
is just visible on the brass barrel.



This shows the Ferrel which has a small cup on the large end. the  
cable is pushed through and the cable is splayed open a bit, then  
pulled back in to the cup and soldered.
