THROTTLE CABLE

[SIMPLEXUSA]

 Hello, wondering if any of you guys have ran into this? I purchased both the throttle cable and the choke cable from Wayne. choke cable slightly larger. Because the throttle is a "push /pull steel cable it backs itself out of the adjuster. Im wondering if anyone has a fix? Also, because the twist throttle is a hidden control style, there is no way a return spring will pull the cable back.(too much friction) what are people using to keep cable into adjuster?  I went to bike shop and got 2 new adjusters. ( a bit loose).  any pictures or ideas? thanks

On the model m, they use a flat caple clamp on the top of the engine case to hold the cable. With your needs, I would use a cable clamp. They are a small machined collar with a set screw. one on each side of the bracket and all should be good.

Or , you could drill and tap the rear hole that the cable goes through and install an adjuster .

On my 56 M the outer cable is clamped next to the carb.
