I have a replacement for the cable but cannot figure out how to get access to the cable on the engine side. Is there a way to replace this cable without removing other parts to gain access - or are my fingers just too fat?

Throttle Cable Replacement
My '82 GS650l was knocked over by a passing car while parked on the street - luckily the only damage was a broken barrel adjuster on the throttle cable housing. The break causes the throtle cable to bind in the housing, holding the throttle wide open - needless to say the bike is unsafe and unrideable.

gotta take the tank off, if you haven't already. Very tricky, but doable. Bent (or right angle) pliers and or curved forceps help a lot-
