Sprucing up the old FZ1

[noggythenog]

Would it not be significantly easier to just take the throttle bodies off the engine so you can route the cables easily?

in theory if you are a mechanic then yep but for me I wasn't chancing messing it all up by tampering with things outside my scope, to even attempt the cable was a bold jump for me and I read on other forum posts about other bikes about taking off throttle bodies but I didn't quite know how the mechanism worked and theres allot of tension on this throttle pulley arm thingy that the cable goes onto with the other side snapping back quite ferociously...I didn't want to dismantle something under that kind of tension and it just release itself all over the place and be in a million bits and pieces :o
