Ollie1995 Posted November 15, 2011 Posted November 15, 2011 Hi, I have only gone and bought the wrong throttle cable thinking it was the right one... Could anyone tell me the part number for this? Its off a 1982 model. Thanks, Ollie.
triton john Posted November 16, 2011 Posted November 16, 2011 If its just the inner thats gone as that inner looks to have a nasty bend in it just make one up then you know its the right one. Any probs on bowden cable supply p/m me or get a copy of old bike mart.
Ollie1995 Posted November 16, 2011 Author Posted November 16, 2011 The end nipple on the end of the inner cable has got stuck in the metal part and I can't get it back out, I was hoping to buy A new one but can't seem to find them n anywhere.

triton john Posted November 18, 2011 Posted November 18, 2011 If the end nipple has got stuck just heat it up with a blow torch and it will dissintegrate itself ! Then measure up what you have left and make your new one.
Ollie1995 Posted November 18, 2011 Author Posted November 18, 2011 Good idea trition john i'll have a go at that now
Ollie1995 Posted November 18, 2011 Author Posted November 18, 2011 Yep, worked a treat! Heated it up, pulled the wire through then dipped the nipple in some solder and put it together again
triton john Posted November 18, 2011 Posted November 18, 2011 Sorted then. Who needs a main dealer ? The old ways are the best !
