Hey thanks Joe, know it well ;D
started on the cables today, fitted the choke kits
used a CB160 throttle cable as the choke cable, i could have sweated in new ball ends but in the end decided that the cable worked and couldn't come out so just filled them down
in all that part was very straight forward and easy ;D ;D as for fitting
the left hand cable went right through the engine breather, problem, had a look at re-drilling the hole and filling the old one, but that would look so so
so removed the tube and made a new one with a bit of a bend in it,
just a tip for young players, if you heat steel to cherry "don't" cool it with water, let it air cool, or you will change the temper of the steel and it will
become brittle, same with welding
All done, not perfect as the tube was difficult to bend to a tight radii
but it'll suffice till later, the cable is against the rubber so shouldn't chafe and is only bent a little :
