Throttle cables
« on: April 26, 2023, 03:36:30 PM »
I snapped the return cable on my k5 trying to install the carbs and hook everything up. For some reason, I’m having trouble finding the oem throttle cables for a 1975 Cb750. Anyone got a good source? Stu? Many thanks in advance!!

Measure existing cables  lenght for correct cable if you have a lower handle bar.

A low Euro bar need 710-730mm in lenght if I remember correctly.
But you might have the higher US bar.
