Product Overview
W650 THROTTLE CABLE SET, LOW BAR SPEC, {"04-08"} MODEL, 01040105-AC
The W650 "low bar spec" throttle cables are for the Kawasaki W650 models (2004-2008) model. Outside of Japan the W650 was only offered with high bars from (99-00), however in Japan there was an option for a low bar spec W650 or a high bar spec W650 throughout the entire build series. For owners of the High bar models, it is common to change the bars to low bars or custom bars to improve aesthetic and comfort.
When changing handlebars to the lower custom bars such as the POSH Touring bars, POSH Conti bars (or similar bars), these throttle cables are an essential item to avoid unsightly and dangerous cable overhang with lowered or narrowed bars!
When you combine these cables with our separately available low bar spec "clutch cables" and correct low bar spec "brake line" you will finish your bikes low bar or custom bar conversion like a pro!

FAQ:
Q: What's the difference between 99-03 "low bars spec" throttle cables and the 04-08 "low bars spec" cables?
A: There is not a lot of difference. The 04~08 type cables have a slightly extended outer PVC covering and cable outers are updated to a slightly lighter weight than the older 00~03 cables. End fittings and pull lengths are very similar and within +/- 5% length so adjustment is not affected at all.
