Throttle Stops

After sorting the throttle cable it suddenly dawned on me that there were no throttle stops in either direction! Obviously the butterflies stopped at full chat, but there was nothing stopping me from pressing the pedal more and snapping the cable. There was also nothing stopping the pedal falling backwards, so I decided to knock up some stops.  I cut out some strips of steel, bent a flange, filed a V, bent this to the required angle and welded it all up. Simple.

Making the Stop

I am not quite sure how Jon gets away with this but there you go! Anyway, I welded a nut to the stop to allow me to screw a bolt in or out to set the stop position.

Stops in Place 

Its all a bit tight down in the pedal box, and didnt know this picture had been taken until I downloaded the camera!!!
