If you already have the cable why don't you just try it, and if it works good luck tomorrow.

If you decide to run it.... make sure your insurance is paid for the month.

It will either fit or it won’t. We’ve run Honda cables on KTM’s for years because they were longer and could be looped behind the number plate.

Just don't run Yamalube, that's definitely bad for a KTM.

The end that goes into your throttle housing will not fit. It has a different thread for the adjuster. A Honda 2 stroke cable will fit though.

Yamalube-For Yamaha's only. Doesn't work in any other brand. Don't ask me how I know, bro.

Laughing We use Yamalube in every 2 stroke we have and have since I was a kid. Other than my son's PW. That gets Maxima Injector oil. SuperM is my second choice if I can't get Yamalube for some reason.

Not true. You just need a blue powerband and you're good to go. Bro.

Or SuperTech, for the love of God, no SuperTech. It will blow up your engine and make your wife runaway with the pool boy!!
