Throttle cable doesnt seem long enough.
« on: January 30, 2014, 10:34:55 pm »
I just put a new mikuni tm 38mm on my 91 lt250. When I put the cable in the slide it was tight. Twisted all the slack out of thumb throttle. Help a little.  Still to tight causing slide to lift. Got it down enough to control slide height. Put not enough slack in the cable. Anyone else have this problem. Should I order a zilla throttle cable. Would zilla cable fix this.

Check the way you routed the cable too. Sometimes that's makes a difference

Use your cable from the 39pwk, a zilla cable will be too short also without the OEM 500 Carb cap it is recessed and don't have the adjuster on the top.

Or Terry Cable also, if your +1 on the stem you want to get a custom cable.

Terry cable makes a braided steel throttle cable that looks pretty sweet...

They can make custom cables. They can modify yours also if needed.

I sent motion pro my ltr450 throttle & cable , they gave me a twist throttle kit for the trouble. They said I had the first ltr450 they knew of! Thank you again Larry
