Hey everyone. I was hoping to get some help on replacing my throttle
cable on my 2002 kawasaki Ninja 500R. I figure it's relatively easy, but I
have never done it and just want to make sure I don't remove more than
neccessary. Pics, links, advice, anything will help. Money's tight so I
gotta do it myself. I've got some automotive background, but nothing on
motorcycles. Thanks to all!

Pull the fuel tank. Route new cable beside old cable. Disconnect old cable. Hook up new cable. Remove old cable. Reinstall fuel tank. Go for ride.
People say I'm stupid and apathetic. I don't know what that means, and I don't care.
