Worked like a champ

I've never hand-made a throttle cable before. You have to be able to solder, but at least for me a cheap Radio Shack soldering iron and standard 60/40 solder worked great. It was light, contained all the necessary bits and pieces and was quick and easy to set up. I will buy a second set as a spare. Featured!

Pros
  • Best in niche
Cons
  • Not sure

Great as a throttle cable on an MG Midget

I bought this cable to replace a throttle cable on a 1978 MG Midget. The one I got from the MG parts supplier was junk as it wasn't teflon coated and was always sanded. This cable set was a great replacement!. All the parts needed were included, which made me very happy! Simply cut to length and solder the tips to the cable.

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Durable

Versatile as far as I can imagine.

The addition of the optional in-line regulator accessory really helped ease the uncertainty of overall cable length. I had to heat the silver solder in a crucible and it worked the first time (see YouTube) For the crucible I heated the female end of a 1/2" extension with a propane torch. Hold the extension upright with the male end in a vise .

Pros
  • Excellent fit for me
Cons
  • Slightly torn

An amazing kit that every rider should have.

I was blown away by how good this set is. I have previously purchased and installed a clutch cable kit, but this is much easier to install. The solder flowed through the cable and nipple much more easily than before and I don't know why, but it was amazing. The best thing about this set is the rope tensioner. I wish the clutch kit came with it as well as it took the headache out of worrying about being 100% accurate with the cable length. Time will tell how well these kits hold up, but if…

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Older model

Great product! on Motorcycle & Powersports

I purchased this cable with skepticism as I have never made, repaired or even worked with a cable before. I tried my luck and tested my skills and with a bit of trial and error, create and repeat I was able to get this job done flawlessly! The only downside to this is that they only include one nut in the adjustment pieces when two are needed, apart from that it had almost everything I needed, although I did have to do some custom work to fit some of the pieces that are she looks great! I've…

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Minor issues

Great kit! Used to overhaul clutch cables

Bought because cheaper than universal clutch kit and took a chance to see if parts would fit. Well done. I have a '06 Honda Shadow Bobber and I installed 14 inch monkeys so the clutch cable didn't reach. Throttle cable barely reaches, so I'm buying this kit again to redo this cable. The kit contains many parts for universal use. I reused the nylon bushing for the small barrel end from my standard cable and slipped it over the brass barrel end from the kit. I also reused the part of the standard

Pros
  • Pleasant
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for elderly

Great Product: Parts

Sometimes you just can't buy an OEM, I'm in the business of replacing a Raptor 660 engine with another engine and this kit was perfect. First I made a throttle cable with bike wire, which is galvanized wire with the same diameter as in this kit. The throttle body turned heavily and opened almost completely. The description of this kit states that the cable is a 7x7 strand and after some research I found that this type of strand is more flexible due to the way it is constructed. I watched a…

Pros
  • Great for a small house
Cons
  • Good but not great
