So, I need to order a new throttle cable, which will be run for a carbed motor.
How do I run the cable to the carb link bar? Is there a pulley or channel or something to make the bends easier? What do I need to do to get the leverage to actuate the linkage? Do I need to order a special throttle cable (longer or somehting?) I'm dumb, pics are helpful. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) Zach |

OK, a couple more pictures courtesy of CB Performance (these came with the Dell kit all those years ago). One shows all of the pieces, the other is the assembly guide with my notes . . . .
There are a number of ways to put the linkage together--I wasn't too inventive back then so I tried to make mine match the picture. Knowing a little more about linkage geometry now, I could probably improve things but it seems to work well enough with no drag or binding, so it's kind of low on the list right now (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) Attached image(s)
