    Throttle Cables

    Is there any difference between a 78/79 & an 80+ throttle cable or is it simply that the 78/79 uses 2 of them.... that's what it looks like on the parts fiche but just wanted to double check.

    Want a couple of shorter ones for my 1000, logical choice is the 1000S but may have to go aftermarket (as the stocks are $26 each) & so far can only find the 80+ ones.

    They have different fittings on both ends for the VM and CV carbs.
