Post Broke mikuni throttle cable
If you ever break one and you got some other wire in the boat, you can rig it up to atleast get you back.

Used some strands of 10ga wire today.



Now where can I buy a new throttle cable?

New cable from BPS or EVT. Boat Dr will probably have it in stock & ships to your door in ~2 days.

willet, go by a HD or motorcycle shop. After caddo and seeing one break I decided I wanted a spare. I went by a shop here and they gave me a couple good used cables that were take offs from upgrades. I just pulled the cables out of the casing since since its the part that wears out. Can just slide the new cable through the casing without taking it off your motor.
