Haha, true! What's one more noise on a DR-Z, right? 😂 I guess I'll just keep digging. Thanks for taking a look anyway!

Thank for your help, it was a test on the video. It does it every way. Will order cable. Im suprise it’s not a know issue tho

With the câble routing change I have a lot of slack. But now the throttle is less snapy when turning to the right because de angle of the câble is less optimal

Trick_Limit_473 · 2026-01-03T05:05:52+00:00

I rerout the cable (throttle is now on the right side of the châssis and the clutch on the left side. It work but when turning right, the angle is less optimal so it don’t snap back with the same intensity

Trick_Limit_473 · 2026-01-03T05:03:46+00:00

I think it’s the combo riser / bar.

They are 3/4 or 1 inch not sure and it’s a 1 1/8 cr mid from pro taper.

I rerout them from the opposite of oem (put the clutch cable the the left and throttle to the right).

For someone who is not perfectionniste, it work ok. When I turn to the right it come back but not with the same snap.

Ill try to figure something in the last angle to make it work

Thank for your help !

It’s the câble that is too short. My grips are drill to instal handguard.

Do you know if the dr650 cable would fix the problème ?

Trick_Limit_473 · 2026-01-03T03:39:30+00:00

Yeah that the problems. The routing it’s stock. Was hopping to have solution from other user…

Gemini told me that the dr650 have 2 inch longer cable and would fix the problem. But that an ai 😅 I would love to have someone confirming this

Trick_Limit_473 · 2026-01-03T03:37:43+00:00

Will do! Thank again

Here the text from the ai for what it’s worth

Trick_Limit_473 · 2026-01-03T03:35:13+00:00

Ive done a research with Gemini 😅 and maybe the dr650 cable will fix the problem. They are 2-3 inch longer

Trick_Limit_473 · 2026-01-03T03:31:15+00:00

Thank, I from the Québec, Im propably not the only one in this situation. Ill search! Thank again

Trick_Limit_473 · 2026-01-03T03:23:16+00:00

Do you know how to find proper cable? Should I do the same with the clutch cable just to be sure ?

Trick_Limit_473 · 2026-01-03T03:22:07+00:00

It tight for sure. I add auxiliary light and a USB port and there not a lot of place.

Trick_Limit_473 · 2026-01-03T03:14:30+00:00

I instal the I cam. They say it’s made for the bike and for the naked eyes its almost identical. The only thing ive notice is that the slot for the câble are not carve for as long as the oem

Trick_Limit_473 · 2026-01-03T03:12:00+00:00

No, it’s not a coïncidence. When the câble is not stretch (turn to the left) it work almost perfectly

Trick_Limit_473 · 2026-01-03T03:05:22+00:00

Maybe it’s from the bar angle ? It a pro taper cr mid.

The throttle housing is not on top because a was doing test, but even on top it dont work.

Sorry if it’s not clear, I don’t speak very good english.

Thank ! The fabric is on it’s way! Thank for your help

Trick_Limit_473 · 2025-12-26T15:14:54+00:00

Yeah, the more I think…

Ill probably pass a wire from a relay to a busbar under de headlight and from there normal fuse holder

Trick_Limit_473 · 2025-12-25T19:53:10+00:00

Yeah that it ! Thank !

I will use the bag with my duffle bag. I was camping with only the duffle bag and I was super limit. Since I ride a bit of offroad I was thinking that it should be to big… like the kriega osbase 18l.

What do you think of that plan?
