1969 Yamaha CT-1 175 throttle cable?

Posted by: Glitch

My friend has got a '69 ct-1 175 sitting in his shed, ready to be fixed and rode. All it really needs is a throttle cable, the rest is in good condition, even the rims are still nice chrome. But he isnt too into it so I thought I'd start working on it. I need to find the main throttle cable for it, it goes into a connector which pulls two cables, which are still good. I'm looking to see if anyone knows of a company that makes them, or, if a company will make a cable if given the lengths, etc. I can find out what length the cable and sheath need to be, and what connectors need to be on it. So does anyone have an old one from a parts bike or know where to get one, thanks alot.

I see throttle cables for different model autolube Yamaha's on E-Bay. Just about any of the full size models should fit.

Ok, I'll give that a try. By full size do you me like same year ct, dt(?), etc. of 175 or bigger? I'll just take a look.

This is just a guess, but I would think that 125 or larger should work.

The local Yamaha shop here tends to have a lot of the NOS stuff. Too bad I do not allow myself to go there any longer. (Long story)
