that sounds right ....... I broke mine last June............ I was putting on a Mikuni and was going to use the stock choke cable, broke it putting it back on..... turns out I had some other problems with the carb kit ..... wrong parts were sent..... they sent me the breather bolts for a TC     :oops:

anyways, I had to take the carb off to change out the choke cable ........ seems like to me, I had the Mikuni on the bike twice, and the stock one on and off the bike twice that same day ..... needless to say, I did get tired of changing out the carbs.

I am running the stock carb now, but will be changing it when I do my build.  I THINK I have all the right parts for the carb kit now ..... I'll find out in a week or so

you pretty much got it right about how that cable gets broken .... and I don't know of any replacement for it, other than the HD part

Well....I never done this before; so, time to sit down and read the manual and see If I can figure out what I'm doing...BETCHA I won't get mine changed in one day, much less changeing it two or three times  ;D

Thinking seriously about following Howie's idea and changin to the S&S and be done with all the Choke assy BS...Don't know yet...Thanks for the info and wish me that I don't FRICK something up  ::) ;D

Believe me....The thought crossed my mind...Bro-Law has one on his 89 FXR; seems so much simpler.

Much simpler, easy to tune, and all 1-piece. It's the only carb I'll use. Besides, NOTHING looks better on an HD than an S&S Teardrop A/C Cover!!! :2vrolijk_21:

My Revtech 110 Evo came with a Mikuni HSR45. I'll have to see how that goes. But i'm not convinced it's staying on there even though it is brand new! But I do have the S&S A/C assembly on that Mikuni. (See above statement again!) ;)

Make sure you get the complete install kit w/manifold and all mounting hardware and A/C assembly. Pipe the breather from both heads to a tee and route beneath the bike. Don't forget new throttle/idle cables. S&S uses a different mount on the carb. They do make adapters to mount stock cables on an S&S Super. Up to you which way ya wanna go with that one. ;)

 :ROFLOL:....Don't worry Tim, It's all just a thought. Am considering it but haven't made up my mind yet. One thing is for sure; I ain't paying $425 or even close to that for one. IF I get one it will be used, NOS (If there is such a thing) and way less than $425.00...If I happen on one for a good deal; I'll grab it up, but that's the only way....You should know me by now; I am a CHEAP B@$^@&D... :2vrolijk_21:  ;D

Wow; had so much fun with the guys pickin on our buddy TiMidator over on "Mikey's Build" thread  ;D I had to FINALLY go out (Actually just had the time to mess with it) and see if I could replace the new enricher cable without tearing up or breaking something else.

Really surprised at how simple and easy it was to pull the carb off :vrolijk27: but very happy to say all is done and now I'm gonna clean up real good (well) under the tank area and put tank back on.....OH!.....And I got that SHINY new knob for it too  ;D.... Soon ta RIDE again. Thanks again guys for all the input  :2vrolijk_21:

OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH  TIM.......S&S is still a possibility but not high on the radar screen...Like I said; if a kit pops up REALLY< REALLY< REALLY> REALLY cheap.....I MIGHT go for it; for now I'm still stock carb  :2vrolijk_21:  ;D

Glad ya got it back together ok elvislee  !!  yeah, getting the carb off it's too big a job, but if you had a 'real enricher cable' instead of the POS HD sells, you wouldn't have had to do that    :huepfenlol2:

been there, done that too   :huepfenlol2:


it was fun picking on TIMadatior ..... huh     :huepfenlol2: :huepfenlol2: :huepfenlol2:

Hey TiMidator...See my reply on reply #24 I posted for Mike  :2vrolijk_21: Yea man, I had to purchase a whole complete new enricher cable HD PN: 29229-88D. To replace the new cable I had to pull the CVO carb off the bike as I didn't seem to be able to get a wrench onto the plastic nut that connects the cable end into the body of the carb. Also it woulda been a PITA (At least for me) to try and reinstall the new cable into the carb body while still on the bike. Seemed to me to be quicker but also more accessible with the carb off.

Once the carb was off I simply unscrewed the nut, pulled the old cable out of the carb body, then removed the old cable from the cable starter valve, removed the spring, installed the new cable through the spring, then new cable was reinserted into the starter valve then the new cable is now fully assembled and put back into the carb body and very carefully tightened down.

I then opened my newly purchased SHINY NEW CHROME BING BLING pull knob and mounted it over the plastic stock choke knob on my new enricher cable. Then ran the knob end of the cable back through to the cable mounting bracket, reattached the carb back to the rubber seal ring that helps hold the carb onto the intake manifold. Went to other side of bike and mounted cable into the cable bracket, finger tightened metal nut at rear of cable up to the bracket, finger tightened plastic nut up to the bracket to allow the cable to stay out when pulled and Badda Bing-Badda-Bing...New cable is on and new chrome Bling-Bling cable knob HD PN:29431-97 is on  :2vrolijk_21: ;D
