PR: Proprietary Items Twist Grip

[erik]

I will change from single pull to twin pull twistgrip on my Rapide. What is the best way to reach the rear carb mounted on a rear cylinderhead with a stanadart handlebar?Erik

On my bike with a twin pull the rear carb cable goes down from the grip and then rearwards to pass over the front right hand petrol tank support. It then runs along the oil tank/petrol tank lower gap and then turns down to enter the carb with no tight bends required.

This addresses metal guides for the 90 deg bend at the carb:

Here is some information for using a Twin pull Thomaselli with Premiere carbs and Venhills Featherlight cables. These are Teflon lined SS cables that do not ever require lubrication. A bit pricey, but buy them once and they will likely see you out.
