So I was thinking on replacing my throttle cables to shorter ones. Question is, what style are the ones in this pic from my mikuni HSR42 carb? I read mikuni after May of 1999 use original cables.
I don't know the manufacturer date of my mikuni...

 

Look like stock style ends to me.

 

Thanks Tex...

 

Wow, couldn't even get a second conformation, hope you're right Tex, and I think you are....
Order has been placed....

 

Does anybody know what the stock length of the throttle cables would be on my bike ? 86 wide glide...

 

Hello, anyone home ?

 

The Drag Specialties book might tell you.
I'll check mine later and see.

 

Thanks, I did some digging of course and came across different lengths but none actually said which was stock or Oem.
I bought 1985 fxsts Barnett cables, they look too short but won't know until motor is back in bike.
I should have waited and took a measurement but I'm getting anxious and losing my mind.

 

Can't you just compare the new ones to the old ones?

 

According to the Drag book the stock length throttle/idle cables for 85-86 FXWG is 32.5"
