Hi, are any of you guys with bike carbs on your car engine using a choke?
Boggbros have said I should have one.
Cheers Jay

Fitted a generic cable (like a Mini or something),cut to length with a screw on nipple , the cable stop etc is already on the carbs.........works well

My sierra column came with a bonnet release cable. This bolted right up to the choke on my R1 carbs. It works a treat except that the spring pulls the choke off if you let go ogf the lever. I only need it for starting though.

Iv got a universal one on mine. This one.

Its 1.7m long. I got one from a show which was 36 inches but its too short for me. Itl be going on ebay this week so if u want it let me know.

Mini ones are too short.

You will need the choke. Mine wont start when its cold without it.

Thanks, Bogg Bros are supplying the choke cable and throttle cable for me with the carbs and manifold. Cheers
