Steve,
                 What exactly do you need?
If you need the cable set-up, I will check out the originals that I have later but basically there is a single cable from both the choke lever and the throttle with splitter boxes at the ends with twin cables going into the carbys. Cable adjusters on top of the carbys.

Im very appreciative Trev .
At the moment I have no clue how the cables are arranged or if I need a dual throttle , etc ?
I have been unable to find any information on this model at all other than pictures ..none showing this area in detail ?

Any help at all would be very gratefully received .

One of the above has confusing shadows.
Here's another complete with my feet.
