Z1Enterprises may have the measurements of Motion Pro cables. You could disconnect the clutch cable at the lever end to figure out the overage, then mark & measure it. Then find an appropriate cable. With drag bars I'd guess a cable from a GPz model might work. of course Ltd & CSR cables are going to be way too long.

I did the same thing on my KZ1000. Buy Z1R cables. I did both throttle cables and clutch cable. I think they are about 4" shorter than regular KZ1000 A model bike, not the LTD.
