The LT cable is 1625mm long
The RS cable is 1510mm
My clutch lever (RS) is right down by the top of the left fork tube- look at yours and you will see where the extra 115mm is needed
These folks have the correct cable and are great to deal with

I hate to say it, but you may be able to find the cable at you nearest "stealer" instead of waiting for shipping time.
I like the "Eilenberger" theory of repair parts,,,,, as sure as you don't have a spare on hand, you will need it...... _________________ Ride safe.

Thank you Gentlemen, The most local dealer we have here in Spokane Wa, seems to have to order anything if your bmw is older, I am in no hurry as i am home only three days a week, so I will go ahead and order it. I looked at max's website at that is where I usually order my stuff, but could not find anything for a clutch cable.. Once again thanks for the great help..
