Hey guys I just got a throttle clamp/lock and decided to instal it today.
But after following the instructions I've found that it won't fit between the cables as per instructions.
So before I start modifying it with my trusty hacksaw. Has anyone else got it to fit?

Hey Marcus, is this where the trusty hacksaw comes into its own?

Kev,
I have fitted similar - the instructions state to "FILE" lightly & evenly on each side until a firm fit is achieved.
I did this & whooppee - it works - I may have taken a little too much but it works, with slight movement.
Remember - a File.
Good luck
Bob

I had the same type on my 900 Hornet, and had to cut it down with said hacksaw (or file) to make it fit between the cables. Actually I think I used the bench grinder.
It worked like a charm and did so for many years :)
