34mm twist throttle - cable / twist throttle problem


Recommended Posts

So I want to put VM34's on my Shee.

 

I got a Vitos cable, and a Motion pro twist throttle for it. Well the cable doesn't have adjusters on top of the carb caps. They also don't screw in the carb caps. How would I sync the pull action?

Do I just buy caps that don't have screw in's then and run it?

 

I got a Parts Unlimited vm34 cable and that is too short for the twist throttle. Its like a snowmobile throttle cable or something. The knarp wouldn't even fit in the throttle adjuster, I would need to grind it.

 

can I just buy adjusters for the top of the VM's?

 

Maybe buy a different throttle that doesn't need lots of cable.

Yeah, the two cables I have the adjusters are built into the cable. The sled and Parts Unlimited do. The Vito's cable does NOT have them built in. 

 

Parts unlimited is definitely like a replacement Snowmobile setup the way the throttle outer housing terminates.

I am going to pop out the adjuster end on the snowmobile throttle and see if they will slide on and be usable for the vitos cable. I really must be doing something wrong to have to monkey around with this.

Where I went wrong #1 is I saw the Vitos cable and it required a " CR Style throttle " so I got it stuck in my head that every cable that is up for purchase is going to use the same. No no.

 

Also by using snowmobile carburetors I need to change out the needle seats to compensate for Gravity fed vs. Pump fed. Just thought I would throw that out there.
