Hello,

I wonder if something is wrong here.
There is no side hole into the VNB chassis on the side for gear cables as on a VBA for example

External inline image provided by member with no explanatory text

Should all cables go through this grommet ? (2x gear, rear brake and clutch)

Rear brake and clutch are already tight !

As I replaced the floor board, I replicated the hole where the cables are supposed to go through and added a grommet as seen on exploded drawings, but I'm not sure all cable sleeves will fit into there without battle.

Was there originally a grommet there ? If so, is there different types ? Does the one have look ok ?

Thanks !

All four cables run through that hole. It is tight.

Thank you.

I have the right grommet then. Will use a bit of soapy water to ease.
