Interesting discussions, I've just purchased a 2000 V11 sport that had bar risers installed. I removed them because the engine rpm was increasing on tight right hand turns which kind of freaked me out on the first ride. Does anyone know of a longer throttle cable available? Local dealer can't answer the question.

Turns out to be an M10-1 pitch. A 1/8- IP (pipe thread is very very close and if using a tapered pipe thread will work) Problem solved

Just picked up a 2000 V11 sport. Removed the previous owners pipe wrap to discover the caps on the exhaust headers are missing. Look to be lambda sensor holes in other parts of the world. Have tried a M10 1.5 pitch bolt but thread doesn't seem to match. Anyone know if this is 1.5 pitch thread?

Thanks, I took it to the dealer for a good checkover and tune up and asked them to look at the problem. Mechanic said he rerouted the cable but he also removed the risers while he was at it. I noticed on the MG Cycle site, there is a note that the current cable for that part number is 4" shorter than the original so I am wondering if perhaps the previous owner may have replaced the cable at some point with a shorter one. Perhaps I'll just reinstall the throttle side riser temporarily to see if the cable routing change is any better.
