I used bike cables with no problems, attached them to the pedal with a bolt drilled through and clamped with bols and washers no problems in 6k of hard driving

Only one throttle cable required ----- 2 will only cause problems.


Make sure you have a stop on the pedal to ensure the throttlle can only be opened to about 98% of carb spindle movement, any more will cause damaged carbs and/or broken throttle cables.
