    Help with throttle cable, 200x

    can someone please help me with the proper route of the throttle cable in an 85 200x? pics would be awesome, but an explanation would be fine. tried it six different ways, and getting frustrated. i would prefer it to be right, and i hate guessing. thanks.

    I'm at work right now. So I can't look. If I remember it just goes between the triples. Follows the top tube of the frame under the gas tank to the carb.

    I have an 83 x but I don't know if its correctly in place. I'm still working on it from the PO. I'll take a picture when I'm home, I'm at the woman's house for tonight/tomorrow though.

    Wasent sure if it went down the starboard side, or the port side, and wasn't sure where it crossed over the top. Thanks for the help.

    it is not in my manuel, and thank you. I had it wrong. My manuel is a clymer, and, apparently, not as good.

    I just routed mine a few weeks ago. It goes right up the frame rail. I think it crosses the frame rail where the carb is, then runs up the top. There is a hook tab that will secure it. Then right up to the bars. As long as you can fully turn right and left without it pulling, it is fine.
