May 8, 200718 yr Hey i kno this subject has been discussed before cause i did a search but i didnt see anyone giving tips on how they did the bracket. My throttle cable bracket is too far away from the carb so the carb will not close all the way. I tried bending it closer but it still isnt enough. Anyone got any suggestions or tips to how to make it work?
May 9, 200718 yr HEll yeah, I fixed that thing good! check it out! I wish I put a tape measure next to it (duuuuh) but I fab'ed a piece of steel about 3in. if i remember right, and took the throttle cable bracket for the Carter Weber set-up, and tac welded it together. I also had to do some extra bending in the piece I made, obviously. infact, you could easily just fabricate the whole entire thing!
May 9, 200718 yr Here is a pic of mine for reference, I didn't install it so I wouldnt know too much.
May 9, 200718 yr Author Ok thanks guys. I'll have to look around for my carter-weber throttle bracket and see if i can make something work with that.
May 9, 200718 yr Let me know if you would want me to fabricate you something. It would be fairly cheap to ship a small bracket.
May 9, 200718 yr Author If you could do something fairly cheap for me that would be fantastic. Ill give you a PM. Any chance it could be done before Carlisle (May 20th)?
May 13, 200718 yr Author Just letting everyone kno that i had a local machine shop make me up a custom bracket for the throttle cable. I made a template out of cardboard and gave it to him and he made me a really nice one out of steel. Thanks for the offer again [HTi]Dain
