Wanted: Throttle cable

Post by robertall » Wed Jul 21, 2010 5:17 pm

Hi,

I am after a throttle cable for a Suzuki cs125, 1985. I am unable to find one on eBay, the local shops are unable to get me one, and i need a replacement for the bike as it has been damaged beyond repair.

Does anybody know where i can get one? I have looked in all of the obvious places.

Thanks if you can help me.

Rob

I'm sure there are places that make one-off cables if you send your knackered one as a pattern.
You could maybe unsolder the ends from the damaged cable and use them to adapt one from some other bike (cut down one that's the correct diameter but longer and solder your old ends on).

Thanks for so much for that website link. I will measure my cable and then work out how much it will cost?

Thanks :)
