Carb connections - Something Missing?
avagolen - 31/1/12 at 06:36 PM

Good evening everyone,

Started to look at making a connection between throttle pedal and the ZX6 Carbs and
there is no simple way of locating the cable outer.

Is there something missing?

Any comments / pictures greatly received.

Thanks,

Another pic of the bracket from the side

Thanks,

That explains why the top screw was not tight!

Any ideas where I can get one from?

Edit for double post,you could make a bracket,only needs one cable holder just copy the shape of the ones pictured,failing that eBay or bike breakers online?

I've only just seen this thread, so sorry if its too late, but I have a rotten set of ZX6R that I use for spares. That very bracket is available if you'd like?

Yes please. Save me some work.
