Hi
Standard clutch cable. I am using good quality bicycle brake cable on my twin 40s. Still looking good with the 3000 miles I have done this year.
Where about in Hartford are you as I am in Chingford not so far from you?

Clutch will need a proper cable, there are about 10 different lengths of Sierra ones.
As for throttle, i used a universal one from ebay, came with all sorts fittings.
