To those of you who have installed mikuni carbs on the older bikes with the dual throttle cables, how did you do it? All the kits I see have 2-1 cables for the single throttle pull.
I'm assuming the stock cables won't work with the mikuni carbs. Is there anyone who makes them for this application or will they need to be custom made?

Thank you.
 
The carb ends of the cables are different. I used cables from a 2 stroke Yamaha dirt bike bike. It's been 40 years ago so I can't remember which one. I eventually ended up with rd350 cable setup. It stayed synced better and I used a throttle with a larger drum to reduce the throttle travel.
