Pelican lists two throttle cables. One for the /4 and one for the /6. But it won't let me buy the /4 one. I have carbs with the cable hooked up to the front of the linkage (firewall side). Someone told me the /6 is just longer.
http://www.pelicanparts.com/catalog/shopca..._pedals_pg2.htm What to do? The threaded mounting collar snapped on my cable. Does anyone have one I can buy? Where can i find a new one? |

My "preference" is stock clutch cable (I've had less issues with them than "terry" cables)
Terry throttle cables (if they still make them). I have not had the one "terry" throttle cable that I bought fail since I installed it many many many moons ago. (watch it break on the way home tonight)..... It is my understanding that the stock cables are made of larger diameter wires. The terry cables, being made up of more strands of thinner wires will allow the cable to flex around bends easier than the more "rigid" stock cables. I, as well as some others here, like the plastic sheath on the stock clutch cable. I think it helps prevent crap from accumulating on the cable itself. just my $0.02 |
