Are you kidding?

The small "knarped" end goes to the carb and the open end threads through the throttle where the at screw is on the bottom.

Come on man, your better than this.

"this throttle requires a cable with knarps on both ends. "

--> at least, that's my theory, since there's no way to clamp on the loose end of a universal cable . . . but maybe there's a knarp i'm supposed to buy, which i then put on the cable after i've cut it the right length? or what?

ok so the cable i got is the stock one . . . it works with my old (original) grip and my old bing. so this new grip doesn't work with the original cable, or with just a regular universal single-ended cable . . . so what does it work with? or, how do i get it to work with a regular single-ended cable?

sorry that this is so dumb, but c'mon, i'm stuck here!

So your telling me you don't have the one in the picture? The one I just installed on a bike yesterday?

dude, there's no screw - that's why i posted the picture. there should be a screw, right? but look - no screw. brennan's saying it's called a throttle cable pinch bolt . . . so i need a throttle cable pinch bolt, and then it will work, right? or is there a screw there that i'm not seeing?

ps - sorry i'm such a dumbass, and thank you so much for bearing with me!

I have the same problem with my stock puch cable and my dellorto carb. I plan to do what ar71c40k3 said with the solder trick. I tried two adjusters, but it's really lame and hokey. I'm actually surprised more people don't complain about this with all the dellorto/metra kit setups people seem to be buying these days.

I have that Magura throttle setup on my bravo and it's a slide throttle. Is that what you have? Does yours have the slide that runs left to right when you twist the throttle? Maybe it's just missing the screw? You can get a screw at the hardware store.

You souldn't need the L 84 pinch bolt posted above. That won't do you any good.

So, I tried the whole solder on the end of the cable trick last night....I wonder how many people have actually done this with success. I worked at it for quite a while and couldn't get it to hold. I heated up the cable instead of the solder and it just wouldn't stick.

I ended up putting JB Weld on it. I'm letting dry overnight to see if it bonds to the cable at all. If it works, I'll be impressed. It was definitely much easier to shape than solder was.

see ok that's what i thought . . . so it's just that the regular double ended puch throttle cable is the wrong length for my phbg! i ordered a cable pinch bolt, i'm going to use that . . . soldering sounds a little too ghetto

i'm worried about that . . . i ordered the three kinds they had, i'm hoping one fits/can be ground. i would go up to scooterworks and just get the right kind first, but i killed my car last week and it's 120 blocks north of me

well, 55 bus to red line to brown line actually . . . i mean it's like an hour and a half each way. but you're right, i should just do it.

haha, that's true, and i might even get some reading done, wouldn't that be a trip . . . ok i'm going this afternoon!

When I would take the train i would brown line it up, get off around irving and skateboard there.
