The new Bonnie has Mukuni carburettors fitted and the cables are a little tight and there is no free play.
The cables measure 40" from the top of the carby to the dual throttle hand grip.
As this is all new to me can anyone suggest a cable that fits a little better? I'm not sure on what lengths are available.

Thanks Leroy
 
I never liked to have that small amount of twist with no throttle response so I adjusted them to remove it almost completely. I made sure the slides still both closed completely though.

You could get a bit more length using the adjusters on the cables near the throttle and at the tops of the carbs.

Unless the cables shrunk during shipping, I personally didn't think they were too tight....lol :)

That said, pretty standards lengths are 39 and 43 inches available at most any Triumph parts supply places for around $14.00 USD.
