throttle cable

My XS650SK is still in a heavy service check. All I lack is finishing up. Free time is small like a lot of you. I have in my possession, a brand-new Motion Pro clutch cable, throttle cable, and an OEM choke cable. I've had the bike since new and have no recollection of ever replacing the...

Hey everyone! I am new here and also a proud new owner of a 1981 XS650. Love it. I needed to clean out the carb and replace some stuff, got a new cable (yes I lubed it up) and a new throttle sleeve and grips. My only thing is, it is not snapping back like it used to, and I am stuck, I have...

Just to make sure I'm not losing my mind, I wanted to get a second opinion. I almost done with my first ever build so I'm a green horn. I have a '78 xs650 with bs38 Mikuni Carbs. I purchased a new throttle assembly from TC Bros. with the vintage grips. Bars are not taller so the stock...

Yes I seem to have been posting quite a bit lately, but I think I'm starting to figure things out :) I have a 1975 XS650 with two Mikuni VM34s. The previous owner put a 2-1 throttle cable on it (I know they come stock with two throttle cables) and just recently the cable coming out of the...

Hi, i have a XS2 (1972) with a 2 in 1 throttle cable going through a plastic junction box. The right hand side cable(right carb) somehow disconnected itself from the junction box and became loose. i managed to take the top of the junction box off but can't see much and cannot manage to get the...

Hey friends, I had a question and was looking for some information but coming up short. I have seen a number of people making bobbers or cafes and I look at the bars and they only have a throttle cable and no bar controls on that side. I am inspired by the bobber made by Cassio Silva...

The little hard elbow attached to the bottom of the throttle control on my handlebar started slipping but everything is tight. I took it apart and notice the rigid tube seems to just slip up and down in the case. I notice wear to a little cuff at the end of the cable. Can that be replaced to...

I am putting internal controls on my bike and was wondering if anyone has done this using one throttle cable from the control to the 2into1 splitter from MikesXS. Any assistance will be much appreciated. http://rodemyyamaha.com

All, I have recently installed a basic throttle assembly (no switches). I'm having trouble gaining the right tension on the cable. There seems to be too much slack. Any ideas?

Ok I need to buy some new throttle cable's . What is the best brand / make and where to get them . oh for a 73 tx , 75 xs, 78 xs, I see so many of ebay . Then mikes then , etc... thanks in advance

Is there any other place to get one besides mikes? They have been sold out for like 2 months! Posted via Mobile

Has anyone made their own cables? Any tips on soldering the ends on? I know you need to use silver solder. I have a 2 into 1 throttle cable for dual mikuni 34mm VM carbs, but I'd like to add 45 degree hard bends to the top of the carbs. I also want to modify the single cable to go into a...
