This listing is for a spare Throttle Cable (or choke/air/magneto type cable) outer cable ferrule, and a spare inner cable barrel of the type normally fitted on the twistgrip end of throttle cables. 

This item is useful if you have bought a throttle cable (see items 1216 and 1217) and need to then cut the cable to length or fit an adjuster.  

Normally to amend the length of a cable, or fit an adjuster, requires that the outer cable has to be trimmed to a new length - which loses the pressed on cable end ferrule that it comes with.  Therefore this spare outer cable ferrule can be placed over the newly trimmed outer cable to protect it.  When making up cables - I normally use a small sharp punch and give this ferrule a small punch midway along its length, to stop it slipping off in use.

Likewise, the inner cable barrel ferrule can be used to replace the twistgrip end ferrule, if the original is not re-usable after amending the cable.  But make sure you check this barrel type fits your twistgrip (or air/magneto lever, if being used for that purpose) before fitting!

You can email me on paul.norman@racingvincent.co.uk if you require more information about making up and soldering your own cables - or require other ferrule types, I may be stocking more types in the future.  Also - read the listings for Items 1216 and 1217 for more information.
