Busy with an engine swap on a K75, I kept the original throttle bodies and accelerator cable.
Well, all together, the inner cable is too short when placed back, while it fits perfect when I took everything apart
The original cable has the right number, 32731457378 .
Now for something completely different; (no, not the larch...) I have some spare cables, same number, all used, and all a bit longer inner cable.
I have 1 new, that one is also longer than the original cable of the K....
Did something schrink in there?
Hold on, there's more.
I had similar with a K100 before.
I took off the right handle to replace that with heated grips.
When I put everything back, also innercable became too short
Anyone else had this strange bug?
(Just in case, I even let the cable run free, but still too short. Got a replacement fitted now, works perfect.)
