Connect the soldered nipple to the carb slide, and be sure the outer cable housing is well seated in the throttle adjuster as shown.
At the headset end you should have the inner cable sticking up at the throttle pulley. Your pulley may be a cast metal piece but should function in the same way as these later plastic ones. Try pulling on it to make sure the carb slide responds.
Find the top of the throttle cable outer and make sure it is seated in the metal stop where the arrow is shown above
Fit the removable upper nipple in to the throttle pulley and thread the inner cable through the central hole.
Turn the throttle twist grip back to its stop and pull the inner cable tightly but not enough to move the carb slide. Then tighten down the upper nipple and test to see if the carb responds. If it is a little sloppy it can be adjusted at the carb adjuster, but if there is major slop in the response, you may need to do the previous steps again and tighten the upper nipple once more.
The final step is to clip the remaining inner cable at the nipple and use some grease on the cable and nipple where it touches the pulley . Replace the headset top being sure to reconnect the speedo light and speedometer cable, and you should be good to go.
