PWK 28 cable adjusters

[jon]

Hi all,

I know it’s been discussed before, but what are the current options for cable adjusters on PWK carbs with an LC throttle cable?

Norbo appears not to have any and Allen’s look too long. I’m tempted to make new lower cables and use the standard straight short ones.

If the lc cable is too short have you looked at using a ypvs 29l cable?

Norbo does a good £30 pattern cable

The extra length may allow the use of the standard adjusters

Hi Jon

I’ve used some standard top adjusters, the Pwk top needs a few mods, done it a couple of times now.

Hi Jess,

Where did you get the adjusters from? Was it recently?

Jon

[jessy03]

Yes I recently got them off Norbo - 3 weeks ish ago

I got them from here, still in stock.

Worked fine with the standard 31k cable. No mods at all. More slack would make it easier to fit the cable to the slides though.

Hi Jon
On the 400, I modded the standard 400 cable. The outer cable wouldn't fit into the Pwk brass adjusters because of the cable ferrules, so I removed the ferrules allowing the cable to fit fully inside the adjuster. But the inner cable still wouldn't allow the slides to sit right down, so I carefully cut back the outer metal spiral, meaning the outer cable was shorter and the inner cable was effectively longer, allowing fully closed to fully open movement on the slides;

You can see on the bottom cable where I started to cut back the outer sheath.

Thanks for all the replies guys. Food for thought.

I’ll try Norbo first, but the website says out of stock.

I’m not adverse to making cables from scratch so that might need to be done.

Thanks Andy,

I had see some like that in the past, but I don’t think they said they were genuine so I didn’t buy them. These do so I’ll take a chance and see what the quality is like.

Jon

[headcoats]

I don't think they are genuine either. but maybe changed them ?

But seeing this in Spat Shop , not sure
