Note that most of the solutions involve the dismanteling of the governor and its various linkages and such

Fetor,

A very nice solution to the throttle hook up, and a very creative use of the V-brake cable elbow. You are showing two different configurations of the black bracket? Which is the most recent version? Also the arm attached to the Carb valve is held how?

The black bracket is the same bracket,except pics taken from different angles.The arm that's attached to the top of the carb is held by two 3mm bolts(one faces upwards,one downwards,for clearance)
The standard throttle arm has two holes(one larger,one smaller) already drilled....i just redrilled them a bit wider(both 3mm) to mount the new extended arm on top.
The spring is from the governor.
My camera doesn't take macros but if i get a lend of one i'll post better pics.
Later man.

I came across a new parts kit that may be a fairly simple solution to the problem of connecting the throttle cable to the Honda GXH50 carb.? http://www.affordablegokarts.com/mm...ode=A&Product_Code=THROTKIT&Category_Code=SI7 You may also find some useful information and photos at this link as well. http://www.affordablegokarts.com/throttle-linkage.php

Adapting a throttle cable for fitting onto a Honda GXH50 for rear friction drive is proving to be a real nightmare, is it possible members have got any suggestions on how best to get the throttle cable installed and working. I've read all the posts from this thread but it would appear the GXH50's in question are for V Frame mounting and not for my current rear friction drive setup.

Thank's in advance.

I replaced the carb with a Titan and made the job simple.
