Routing - Throttle cables

Post by paddy_nc29 » Mon Feb 27, 2012 8:56 pm

Hi all,

As above, what is the correct route for the throttle cables on a nc29 1991.

At the minute they go under the airbox freely, then under the left side of the top yolk, round the steering head and into the grip, however, with my ignition barrel on, the throttle cables are tight as a nun's chuff. If i turn my handlebars it almost snaps the ignition barrel.

Anyone had any problems and offer a good route, the snap back on the throttle is excellent until the cables are caught on the barrel, in which case it sticks. Can't think of a better route?

Help appreciated!

Thought they went under the right hand side of the top yoke

Sorted it, I did try it going under the right yolk but the bend in the cable caused the throttle to stick. Cable now goes under ignition barrel on left side of yolk. Snaps back like a good un!
