hook up a honda clone throttle for free!!!!

[killawatt]

im a high school student on a bugdet so i cant afford to pay 15-20 bucks on a throttle kit. this is a way to hook up the throttle on a clone for free using only the parts the motor came with i hope this helps someone else

I took the original throttle lever and took it off. i cut away the outer edge and the top.
Then i took the return spring that was attached to it off. Drilled a hole in one of the support brackets for the gas tank and put one end of the spring through it.
I then attached the other end to the whole on the carb arm right behind the carb lever
took the spring off of the carb lever and through it out.
i screwed the throttle arm into the same point where the lever for the carb arm is this is hoe it turned out.

i did have to do alittle bending here and there but you cant complain its free!!!!!!!! so tell me what yall think or if anyone has ideas to make it better

thanks i was just going to rig something up for temporary use but it works way to well and if you look at the end of the old throttle arm the part that will stick out past the gas tank it has several diffrent options for rigging up a throttle cable
