kiwimonster:
cheers everyone heres a pic of what it looks like a kx 250 cable should arrive today.
Friar-Tuck:
That Appears to NOT be the 38s. Judging from the top of the carb against the parts diagram .
Prev. Owner may have just swapped it out for any number of reasons. Shouldn't be a big deal as long as you have full travel and no binding issues.
Angle looks good I think. There are several parts that interchange on the Keihins I have/had 38PJ, pwk 38a.s. and
pwk 39.5
There were several guys on a CR site that had a rash of throttle's sticking.
One of the culprits was the cable sheath/end would pull out of the cap on the carb and hang the throttle open.
This design (with or without the pipe) seems to eliminate the cable sheath pulling out of the carb top and hanging up on the brass adjuster nut/insert.
Back to your original Question ( cable length) if you have a set of risers or tall/wide bars, or maybe different routing then you would need a longer cable.
