My cable broke at the carburetor. Have ordered a new one from the dealer via Germany.
Need advice how to remove the broken cable and how to install the new one.
Anyone done this job? Need advice.
Many thanks,

PS. I have a picture of the cable entering the firewall but could not figure out how to attach it.

Re: Broken throttle cable
Super easy job, just take it slow if you are unsure.

I just use a bike brake cable and a terminal block to make a loop on the end.
