ok i thought we kinda just went over this.......check out my thread about pretty much the same thing. apparently its possible with the hardware u have. i talked to pat over at flatland fuel, and he said the same thing bout my 990 diacompe (i accidently ordered the rear setup)
You can just put the cable in that slot and bolt it up,Ive been doin this for years,i like this method cuz im lazy,its simple and it never caused me a problem..
how do u secure the cable in that slot?? mine keeps coming loose...and i scratched up my handlebars a little bit puttin on my lever...
