Would someone please post up a pic of the throttle cable routing for an early RHD Jupiter with the Zenith carbs? Both of my RHD Jups were apart before I got to them, so I am looking for how the cable gets past the chassis mounted inner mud guard.
Thanks,
Scott

Re: RHD Throttle cable routing.
Hi Scott.
As nobody (so far) has responded to your request for pictures of the throttle cable route that should be taken for your RHD Jupiter, and as I had the bonnet up on my Jupiter . . . and my camera in my hands, I thought I'd make some some images for you of how it looks on my Jupiter. I'm pretty sure that the run it takes is correct as my machine was pretty original when I got it as a wreck. Back then it had both inner guards, but they were too tatty to be used . . I made new ones using the old ones as a pattern.
Cheers.
Leo.

Interesting. Mine comes up over the chassis and radiator support, passing through the the large hole along with all the other pipes and cables. But then my inner wings are on the bonnet.

Re: RHD Throttle cable routing.
Leo and KC:
Thanks for the responses. Jup 114 has the original inner panel and does not have any holes for routing the cable though the panel. On the other hand, it fits so closely to the footwell that the cable would have to take a HARD turn exiting the firewall.
Almost ready to fire the motor, so getting the throttle to work is a good idea!

Scott
