Throttle Cable
I've tried a few cables and they are all too short / no good. What throttle cables have people used and where did they get them from. My car has some ZX6R carbs on the drivers side.

i got the long one from cbs. cost a bit but it was plenty long enough and was the type you can cut down. i have the same carb setup as you but on the passenger side http://www.cbsonline.co.uk/throttle-...hcab-932-p.asp also this may help you out. where the cable sits on the carbs you need to make a little seat. i got an m8 rivnut drilled it almost all the way through and weded it to the cable holder thingey. will post a pictre later to make a bt more sense. the other side of it i had to put extra springs to pull the pedal back.

I've yet to get around to doing this on my car yet - but I have used venhill universal kits on a few cars/bikes before - very useful as they come with lots of bits

I used a bike cable from halfrauds and cut the inner and outer to the perfect length
Its a stainlees steel one so should be plenty strong enough and the outer sheath is lined with nylon or teflon or something like that! anyway it has a nice smooth action Only cost about £3 I put an adjuster at the pedal box end to eliminate any slack and get the perfect tension |
