Venhill is the place to go.
I just used one of their generic kits.

Re: Throttle cable
Hi just bought a WK trike with 1300 engine, throttle cable was really stiff. I have replaced the cable but it's still not right has anyone got any clue as to which replacement throttle grip complete assembly I would need? Thanks D.

Re: Throttle cable
There isn't much to go wrong with a twist grip! If the grip internals are clean with a minimal amount of grease / oil present, the barrel rotates easily in the housing and on the bar end - there is nothing else to do to make them better. If you have a stiff cable or heavy pull, its more likely to be pinched or binding somewhere due to bad routing!

Re: Throttle cable
Sometimes it just needs the grip to be pulled off the bar by 1mm to make it free turning.
