I did the same as Cliff, but replaced the factory supplied cable  
sheaths  with teflon lined. Seems like much lower friction. For  the ends 
of the sheath connecting to the carbs and throttle lever  housing i used 
fittings  from Lockwood . I did not know that the  factory fitting would 
unscrew for reuse!..........Kevin


Kevin -

Cliff means that you have to get a professional connection for the  inner 
cable to the throttle end.  The outer will screw into the other  parts at each

end.

I shall be shortening my cables and lubricating with a special lube  as 
supplied for racing motorcycles. I am told that this is a good solution  and 
will

report back here as to what success I get.
