Since you seem to be in a hurry, hit up all of your buddies for their old but still good cables and try them. The only other option is order a new throttle and cable from D. Kirk or one of the catolog outfits and have it next-day aired.

Most of the two-stoke cables have different #s on them for the external mounting set-ups different models have so an odd cable may work but you might have to do a bit of altering.

Luck!

Most repair shops can make you one in about 20 minutes. It will cost twice as much, about $25. Just take your cable in so they can emulate it.
