I believe bicycle cables work well for this. Maybe worth taking it to the bike shop to make sure it has the correct nipple for the pedal end. If I remember correctly the carb end is just a clamp for the cable outer and a screw on nipple.

As Darrell said bike cable works, a rear brake cable is long enough but the nipple will need filing to fit the pedal
