Replacing the control cables can really test your patience (especially doing it by yourself) but I found by crimping an old longer cable and outer onto to the one to be replaced worked a lot better than just taping the bits together.
If you are careful, you can then just reuse the old cable for the rest. The cable kit I got from Scoots RS came with 2 extra-long cables so if you are changing / ordering cables make sure you order an extra-long one for this job.
The crimp was just a standard electrical wiring joiner, and you get a heap of crimps and connectors with a crimping tool from super cheap for $10.00 – well worth it for the cables and a no brainer when replacing the entire wiring loom.
With more than 18 million motorcycles sold in over 70 countries, the Bajaj brand is truly ‘The World’s Favourite Indian’. It is India’s No.1 motorcycle exporter with two out of three bikes sold internationally carrying a Bajaj badge. The company is also the world’s largest manufacturer of three-wheelers. Bajaj Auto is the first two-wheeler and three-wheeler company in the world to have reached a market capitalisation of INR one trillion and continues to be the world’s most valuable two and three-wheeler company.
