custom made bolt [frame][/frame][frame][/frame]

where did you get the bolt from

just a random bolt i had in the garage, drilled it out on a lathe

One improvement I can see would be a plain washer under the spring one, this would avoid it pulling into the bracket slot.

Look for "cable adjuster" on ebay

Another option might be a throttle cable from a small motorcycle. The length may need adjusting but they work well, don't cost a lot and have an adjuster.

lots of places sell similar. They are branded as cable adjuster bolts for bicycle brakes.

That choke cable is horribly frayed! And the accelerator inner cable is rubbing badly on the custom bolt - it will soon fray too! bend the bracket down slightly so it has a straight pull. But good solution to the problem!

A hollow headset/stem bolt from a BMX would do the job too ;) They're used to route the front brake cable down through the inside of the headset and used in conjunction with a gyro to allow tangle free handle bar spinning Pros tend to just run a really long cables instead though as it's a lot less hassle. That's the bolt that'll do the job though

hi all

i have used a bike brake cable and i have put a bolt on like hotrodder13 but it is straight and inline so i should be ok i have now ordered a pattern choke with cable from esm to put on

i know about my choke cable i have a new one ready to go on

Re; the bike brake cable. Do be sure that the outer cable is of sufficient diameter so that it stays firmly against the stop on the bulkhead boss. I used a bike cable too and it was fine for a while but a little undersized and the metal outer started to draw in leaving a wrinked plastic sheath. All this wasn't visible.The clue was the increasing lack of throttle response.I had to root around for a sutable sized cable end cap to cure the problem.
