Herald throttle pedal

[Timo]

Hi, can anyone confirm how the inner and outer throttle cable connects to the pedal on a 65 herald with the sewing machine type pedal. Pictures would be great if anyone can assist, cheers in advance.

The cable nipple sits in the slot, and the spire clip then pushes on to secure it. The carb end is a little collet with a securing screw on the solex downdraught carb. The brass ferule midway a long the cable holds the cable outer still as you draw the inner down when you lean on the go pedal.

If like me, you get heartilt sick of brass ferules sliding along poorly made repro cables, consider a rear brake cable from your local specialist bike shop. A range of collars and end pieces are avalable, and the modern ones are teflon lined and a lot nicer.

Ok so the outer cable is not anchored to the pedal anywhere just dangles from the bulkhead.looks like I'm missing a spire clip as well.

 

Also what stops the pedal flipping right back on its self, obviously the bolt stops the forward travel but mine will come backwards?

Olny the spring on the hinge pivot

 

the outer can just stop at the bulkhead abutement if you make one out of a bike cable as suggested they are much better and cheaper

get a couple of solderless nipples in case you need a new end fitting
