Title: Avenger throttle dilemma
Post by: Purpurla on February 01, 2012, 04:01:08 PM
Hi everyone,

I've swapped my 1300cc single carb motor with a bar type throttle arrangement out of my avenger and replaced it with a 1500cc alpine twin carb motor.

Does anyone know what would be the easiest way to hook up a throttle to the new twin carb system?

The single carb system was connected with rods to the carb, the twin carb system has the facility to hook up a cable to it.

I hope this makes sense, lol  :D

Hi Amanda.

I have moved this post over to the technical section so it will be answered by the other guys better.

Have a read of this post here. http://www.avenger.co.nz/forum/index.php?topic=271.0

In that thread "1300Super" posted up some photos on how he setup his twin carbs.

I have a throttle cable that will probably work if you're in Auckland as I got one myself from Pick a Part to do this but never ended up doing it.
