1979 Honda CB400TI Hawk I · Speedometer Cable Buying guide

Check the cable as part of the whole drive path

The black, made-in-Japan cable references 44830-425-870. Its stated length is an end-to-end measurement, so compare like measurements and both connections before using it with a changed gauge or front end.

Use the full route when comparing length

A cable’s fit depends on more than the straight distance between its ends. Follow the route on the fitted motorcycle and compare the end-to-end measurement. Changed handlebars, a relocated speedometer or a different front assembly can alter the space and path needed.

Keep cable replacement tied to the diagnosis

An inactive speedometer can require attention to the cable, the drive or the instrument. Use the appropriate service information to establish which part needs work. This cable’s stated model application does not diagnose the fault or confirm a custom gauge’s connection.

Buying questions

How is the replacement cable length measured?

The stated 38.5-inch length is end-to-end. Compare that with the complete existing cable and check its route, rather than comparing only the visible length of its outer covering.

Will the cable work after a fork or instrument swap?

Check the drive and instrument connections, the new mounting positions and the route between them. A standard-model cable may not meet the requirements created by a different front assembly or gauge.

Do I also need a tachometer cable for the original instrument layout?

No. Honda identifies the 1979 Hawk I’s original instrumentation as speedometer-only. If a tachometer has been added, identify that conversion separately before selecting any drive or cable parts for it.

Not sure which part you need?

Send your model and year, plus photos of your existing part and any changes to the original setup.
