Cool. THANKS! But if you were to change the stroke/travel of the cable the additional bracket would not have been neccessary and the carb and throttle combination could be made to work. And when I learned about the cables, after lots of running place to place lalala, I found I could walk in and say this is what I have, this is what I want to do and I was Literally done and on my way in 15 minutes.

Default throttle

I'm a little unclear on one thing guys. But, if you move the cable to the hole farthest from the shaft on the carb, you lessen the movement on the carb for the same handle throw, which was the issue, not make it greater, which is what I understood the problem to be. Clearly, the opposite will be true from the throttle position.

Just my 2 cents worth.

The arc is larger ..it takes more movement of the throttles to move the shaft to WOT ...thus the throttles have to move more forward ........m
