You can go to some parts stores--Advance, Auto zone, Napa, and buy you an aftermarket throttle cable bracket that you can bolt onto the carb. bolts are intake manifold that will hold the throttle cable and the transmission d-tent cable.
kickdown cable. it connects to the linkage on the carb's throttle. as the throttle goes in the kickdown goes out.
You need to clean out your carb or need a new throttle cable
Throttle cable may be stuck
Your throttle cable is probably dirty and stuck up, or the cylinder in the carburetor, which holds the carb needle, is stuck in the open throttle position (UP)- this could be due to a long overdue cleaning and maintenance routine. It is also ONE OF THE MOST DANGEROUS THINGS TO HAPPEN TO A MOTORCYCLE RUNNING AT FULL SPEED: a STUCK THROTTLE. The best remedy for this situation is to check both cable and carb. You will have to unscrew the top of the carb where the throttle cable enters the carburetor barrel. Pull the cable out and check if the spring still works. If the spring is still original (1976) it WILL most probably be broken and won't return the cylinder DOWN to the closed throttle position. Replace the spring. If it is still whole, shiny, and good- spray it with Carb Cleaner. Actuate your throttle by twisting the grip- check the return action on the spring. If it goes back, your cable is good. If not, put the small red hose that comes with your Carb Cleaner spray into the spray nozzle and spray a little INTO the cable's housing to clean the cable. Twist the throttle grip while the cleaner is still wet to get the cleaner into the cable. If this loosens the cable, then your problem is found. Spray a bit more cleaner into the cable, (best done if you REMOVE THE WHOLE CABLE AND SPRAY INTO IT FROM BOTH ENDS AND PULL THE CABLE IN AND OUT). Then spray WHITE SILICON LUBRICANT into the cable from both ends. Assemble your carb and cable. Start your engine as you normally would. If all else fails, replace the throttle cable.
"84 is still the carb. There is a small screw right at the throttle cable on the carb. Adjust that.
First, Shut off fuel to carb by turning fuel valve underneath tank to off. Then remove seat to gain access to carb, remove air filter that goes to carb. losen and remove choke cable, do the same for throttle cable you must remove cover plate to access throttle cable end. Remove fuel line from carb on left side. then loosen inlet boot from carb and your done
The motor chokes at full throttle because either the exhaust valves are bad and cause the motor to loose compression at full throttle or the carb has an air leak.
there is a screw on the carb right where the throttle cable hooks to it that you use to adjust the idle.
Its probably the throttle position switch.
Should be two cables (one cable for each carb.) tied together and operated by the right hand throttle control
There should be a small ball type stud that is connected to the throttle linkage, beyond the throttle cable. The detent cable should push into that ball and stay fit there. Make sure you have the correct holding bracket for the detent cable and adjust the cable after installing if need be.
