Guys,
Im after a second hand twin weber linkage kit with single or twin cable operation...like these
http://cfront.burtonpower.com/media/cat ... _Kit_3.jpg I want second hand as I need to cut and shut and modify to suit quad throttle bodies.
Anyone got one?
Cheers
JP

Which throttle bodies are you using as they are horrible things

Gsxr 1000. The existing throttle wheel hits the master cylinder when the engine idles...it's a bit lumpy. Plus I cant put a bigger wheel on it because of this problem. And it needs a better ratio as its got 25mm of pedal movement idle to WOT. I'm thinking the lever type system will allow the cable to run in a better position and actuate between the throttle bodies rather than one end

as mentioned, they use a small diameter throttle wheel, pulley or whatever its called
as you can see it hits the brake master cylinder, which is already modified to suit remote reservoir
Plus the cable interferes with the air filter which is yet to be fitted.
An alternate solution is needed.
The other end has the TPS on it so connecting to a lever on this end or wheel in the center is necessary, the weber style linkage converts the cable pull 90 degrees and utilises a push/pull rod and relocated the gubbins clear of the master cylinder!

Put the bell crank on the other end and run the cable around?
I might still have my original Jenvey linkage which cost me a fortune but I hated which are like the dodgy Weber ones stashed still which would be better than the Weber so I'll have a look

TPS is on other end, complete throttle plate change needed to change that so its this end or the middle.
Ill gladly take the jenvey rubbish off your hands if it looks suitable.

This is how I solved that problem:
relocated master cylinder reservoir, new master cylinder with alternate outlet locations and thinner booster
