I was putting the throttle cable on the bike last night and that thing is about 1.5' to long. I looks like it's going to poke out front of the bike quite a bit. I don't think you can shorten them having special ends so what have you folks done to make the aesthetics a little more pleasing to the eye?
After I got the cable into the carb I did a quick blip of the throttle and it did not flip back into place like my motorcycles, more like I had to turn the throttle back. I may have to take apart the handlebar grip to see if it's binding. I certainly didn't have any extra play when putting the spring over the end of the cable (carb side) and it was pretty difficult getting it on the slide that holds the needle. On the instructions it shows the cable sticking way out from the spring (carb side), anyone else run across this situation?
Thanks,
