1979 Honda CB750K · Cables Buying guide

Use the correct reference for each instrument cable

The speedometer cable is listed at 38.5 inches end to end, while the DOHC tachometer cable has a separate reference and application. The gear plug protects the drive and is not a functioning replacement cable.

Measure without borrowing another cable specification

Use the speedometer cable’s own stated 38.5-inch end-to-end measurement when comparing it with your motorcycle. The tachometer listing does not give an overall length, so this guide does not transfer that dimension to it. Review both ends and the actual route for each separate cable.

Check a changed instrument arrangement carefully

Custom gauges and different handlebars can change the cable route or connection you need. Compare the replacement listing with the fitted instruments before ordering. The speedo gear plug belongs to a different job: its description concerns keeping the drive gear clean, rather than transmitting a reading to a gauge.

Common questions

What measurement is stated for the speedometer cable?

The listing gives 38.5 inches end to end and reference 44830-425-870. Compare that measurement and both fittings with the cable already installed, particularly if the motorcycle has different handlebars or instruments.

Is a tachometer cable length stated here?

The current DOHC tachometer cable description lists its application and replacement references but does not state an overall length. Do not use the speedometer cable’s measurement for it; compare the fitted cable or request the missing measurement.

Is the speedo gear plug another cable option?

No. Its listing describes a plug that keeps the drive gear clean, with dimensions of 15 mm outer diameter and 22 mm length. It does not carry drive motion between the wheel drive and a speedometer.
