Motorcycle Idle Cables

Not to be confused with any other means of throttle control, motorcycle idle cables are almost like a safety feature. Yanking on the gas will get you going in a hurry, but there needs to be a return force that’ll ensure the engine comes back down to a safe speed. “For every action, an equal and opposite reaction” and all that. Anyway, that’s where motorcycle idle cables come into play. These bike-specific parts are often found on many Harley models and can replace an old motorcycle idle cable that has been stretched beyond its useful life or simply snapped. Best of all, the replacements you’ll score here at Cycle Gear are quality products that come sheathed in durable housing and slide inside nylon liners. If you’re serious about correct throttle operation and safe motor speeds, motorcycle idle cables are the ticket. Questions about fitment on your specific throttle grip?
