demuire Posted August 16, 2004 Author Report Posted August 16, 2004 Heh, yes it is rather isn't it? TB end: it looks like your cable sleeve is threaded (on the right side of the photo)? Or am I looking at the wrong thing? Firewall: Is that end threaded as well Against a washer? Pedal: Did you drill a hole in the pedal to put the bolt through? Quote
pro_ke Posted August 16, 2004 Report Posted August 16, 2004 answers : - no. its a little attachment you can get from weber dealers... its a long bolt with a slot for your cable end and it is hollow (so the cable can go thru) - the threaded part is where you can adjust the sheath tension (see pic) - same as the above. i made a small alloy plate that i bolted behind the firewall so it would fit (the factory hole is too big) - no there was already a hole there but you are on the right track there i need to change a few things to put the other accel cable in (its supposed to be a twin cable setup) but its low on the list!

Felix Posted August 16, 2004 Report Posted August 16, 2004 looks much like the way the cables are normally setup on a pushbike. how stiff is your acelerator pedal with the 2 big springs? are there also return springs on the carbs themselves? Quote

demuire Posted August 16, 2004 Author Report Posted August 16, 2004 Ah, it's all becoming clearer to me now. Does the end of the cable thread through those theaded sleeves? Quote
pro_ke Posted August 16, 2004 Report Posted August 16, 2004 no it doesnt rhread in it just sort of slots in there Quote
demuire Posted August 16, 2004 Author Report Posted August 16, 2004 Ok... Last time I was at the bike shop there had several different type ends on their cables. The TB end is quite straightforward, any particular sort of end I should be looking for the pedal end? Quote
pro_ke Posted August 16, 2004 Report Posted August 16, 2004 doesnt really matter so long as it slots into one of those things above the flat ended (non threaded) bike cables are perfect Quote
