Got a dumb question. Are our 750's single or dual throttle cable? or does it matter?

I'd love to change out the switches on both sides.

DD, these look nice.

As long as you have a K0 its perfect, anything after that you can swop out the lower part of the control you have, or just use the opening cable but that can pose a risk of the throttle not closing totaly

Thats a good deal. The -300 only works with one cable as said above. You were lucky as
it is not correct for the sandcast K0 and so the heavyweights stayed out of the bidding.  ::)

I got one cable on my scoot and it is fine.
Every once in awhile it will stick open while coming to a stop, but a quick flick of the
throttle solves that issue quickly. Has become 2nd nature while riding...

DUDE! Dusty! Yeah, that's a good deal! New stock part is 100.00 (Still available)...but it was WAY too easy for you! Here's the piece of crap I got online for 36.00 with shipping From JEFF's CYCLE IN OREGON..DON"T ORDER FROM THESE RAT BASTARDS! It doesn't pay to try to save on used parts! This one was WORSE than the broken one on m 750K6! I still have it if anyone wants to buy it! Otherwise, I'm keeping it as a reminder of how stupid I can be!

Hey Duster,Is that switch for a 350?The reason I ask is because it has the hi-low beam switch on it.The 750 has that on the left control and headlight on- off on the right. You can make it work but you will have to rewire from the left to right side.You might also run into some other snags but I'm sure it is do-able.Let us know how it turns out.

European models have hi/lo on the right side.
