Part number is 29l-26335
It is NLA but they creep up on EBay but can be pricey
I've not found a good copy but I've not tried Norbo's
Usually if it is Teflon lined it will be fine
Some quote the 5a8-26335 as a replacement but I have one and it is longer
Yogi swears by a Yam YBR125 cable but I haven't tried one
I had a pattern one on my hybrid for years and struggled with clutch slip on gear changes
The lever heaviness was a right pain too but I put it down to the 3 tz springs
Fitted a NOS cable and it's a lot lighter and it doesn't slip any more, must have been the cable dragging and slowing the clutch engaging

I've also tried the cable making parts from Venhill. The Yamaha cables are still superior. I know prefer to alter a Yamaha cable to fit the application.

I bought a (Venhill) R6 cable to try. The engine end has a threaded adjuster on it which does not fit in the slot for the cable in the upper crankcase. You'd have to modify the crankcase. Not for me. Also the inner was too long which means it wouldn't work anyway, even with the adjuster. I don't know if the Fazer cable is the same.
