    Rerouting throttle cables on Gen II

    OK, thanks. Originally I wanted to try and run the cables over the water? pipe, but they wouldn't fit with the heat shield and T-bar.

    Rerouting throttle cables on Gen II

    Is there a better way to route the throttle cables on the Gen II to create a smoother pull? (note: I tried the spring unwind, and the throttle kept sticking open, so I put it back) So far I've lubricated the cables and a G2 throttle tamer is sitting here waiting to be installed. I'm planning...

    Windshield trim u joint nut source

    My Gen 2 windshield trim has been flapping a little at speed. Turns out that it was missing one of the underside u-nuts and M5 screw. Anyone have a source for the nut? I'm at Ace hardware, and they can't match it. https://flic.kr/p/GfyFS8
