Captain Chaos Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 I always disconnect the cable at the handlebars, and leave it on the carbs when taking them out. Remove the carbs, install the cable, put the carbs back on, connect the cable at the twistgrip. 5 Quote Link to comment

Dezza Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 In my experience the easiest way to get throttle cables back after carb removal varies among bikes and is learned through doing it a few times. Often it involves attaching the cable to the carbs before replacement though, sometimes with detachment at the twistgrip like CC says. GSXR carbs (older ones) are really fiddly and there is no way I can get the cable on the carbs with the bank still on the bike. If the newer ones are similar then that is your starting point.
