headshrink · October 7th, 2011, 09:03 AM

This morning I discovered I need to replace my throttle cable for the second time. It is the cable that pulls the throttle closed, not open. The problem isn't with the cable itself, but rather the PLASTIC termination/adjustment point at the grip. Just like last year, the plastic split along the sleeve portion of the adjuster.

Does anyone know of a good upgrade option, so I don't have to replace it again next year (the part, not the bike)?

EDIT: I was mistaken... it is the OPENING cable, not the closing cable.
