WE DO SUPPLY THIS AS A COMPLETED UNIVERSAL CABLE, BUT TO DO SO REQUIRE ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.

Description

This Chrome 1″ single pull cable only, throttle assembly is an OEM replacement for 1973-1980 Harley Davidson Sportster and Shovelhead models (OEM 56500-79) and ideal for custom applications combining 1″ handle bars with TM and VM Mikuni carbs.

The matching Mikuni throttle cables can be selected in 30″, 36″, 42″ or 48″ length. The lower end has a low profile 90 degree fitting that screws directly into Mikuni VM carb 30mm through to 38mm & all TM non pump Mikuni carburetors 32mm thru to 38mm. The inner wire would need to be shortened for use with smaller Mikuni carbs under 30mm.

The cable comes with a chrome OEM Harley angled throttle fitting and a 90 degree lower fitting for screwing directly into the carb top for a low profile attachment and appearance. As the elbow threads directly into the screw on top of the VM carbs, to access the needle for clip adjustments etc, the carb needs to be removed and the whole body spun to undo the carb top. Sometimes this can be avoided by backing the top lock nut right off and allowing the lid to spin up the elbow fitting when winding off the top of the carb.

These premium grade cables use a Nylon lined outer housing. The Nylon liner inside the outer cable housing conduit is for reduced friction and heat resistance.

All throttle cables must be lubricated during installation with cable lube or a very light oil such as 3 in 1 to avoid clogging. Besides the need to lubricate the inner wire in the housing, the cable end barrels at their pivot points should be lubricated with a light water proof grease.
If you need to clean your cable which is particularly relevant for dirt bikes. We recommend using WD40 or a very light oil such as 3 in 1. This effectively washes away dirt from the cable, without clogging it.
