Throttle Cable Route
Posted: Fri Jan 23, 2015 1:33 am
Greetings,
I've bought a couple of Steve's phf 36mm carbs plus the cables. I'm trying to fit them to the bike and I have a question.
How do the cables route from the handlebars to the carbs? I can't follow the old olds as they came from a set of clip one and were too short.
It was a bugger fitting the cables to the carbs. I struggled with compressing the spring whilst locating the cable end in the slide.
I did buy a 70 degree guide but the cable turns out to be too short if I use that.
I need to do an update on where we are at with this bike but that will have to wait for now.
The bike is a 1981 SD 900
Advice please....
