Throttle cables
Hi folks,
I'm going to get a spare throttle cable for my XT600E. I take it the two cables are the same so I just need to carry one spare? Wemoto doesn't appear to sell them. Anyone know an online retailer where I'd get one?

Nope, the cables come as set. However, in my 80.000 XT kilometers I never had a throttle cable break, so why have them spare.
Online retail: www.kedo.com

Point taken!
Always trying to lighten the load! Will probably just oil the current cables and trust to luck in that case.
