BUSTED!

I was talking the dog out for the first time this season today and noticed there was a lot of play at the closed end of the throttle, so I went figuring it was just sticky from sitting then a block away out pops my return cable dangling!:angry::bang: I'm guessing theres no way to fix that but to replace the entire cable which doesn't seem available on the parts site BDM150-00012...SO PISSED Any advise would be greatly appreciated.

Check with Derek and Donna at Big Dog Parts Kingpin and see if they might have it.
Best of luck.

you should be able to get those through a Harley dealership, Just take the old cable with you or measure the length.

also check to make sure the cable is broke and didn't just work its way out of the ferrell

I was thinking that but I haven't taken it apart yet and I don't ever remember seeing a removable one. I'm assuming that since I see the cable end that it broke. Either way I need to get out the tools and pull apart that housing.

barnett has them too!!

Barnett will fix the one that you have also. Just give them a call and they should hook you up.

It is a removable ferrell. They would be difficult to fall out of the ferrell, I would think most likely the cable broke. Probably just stiff from sitting and pop

i have just had the same problem, but it was my idle cable that broke at the bottom, i tried a repair but the cable kept sticking. so i got new barnett cables from the local harley stealer at NZ $100 each !!!! 85 cents = $1 usa. just got to fit them now and enjoy the late hot weather were having down here before i strip her down for winter.

regards to all
