3AJ choke push/pull (no cable)

Post by jim »

Hi All,

Does anyone know a supplier/part number for a 3AJ choke push/pull (no cable).
I want to get rid of the choke cable, and just have the choke mounted at the carb.

Thanks, Jim

Thanks Bowler and Mezo.

From these links, looks like the OEM part is 2KF143710100.
On MSP website this sells for £96,!!!and says it is suitable for 1987 XT600 (no mention of 3AJ). Probably still work???

At that cost, think I'll stick with cable until I strip bike over the Winter, then see if Mikuni alternative mentioned in the posts might be the way to go.

I just used a 3TB one off an old carb I had lying around.... trouble is with the 3AJ, you can't pull away with choke on and turn it off on the move... cable one is better.
The future is not what it used to be....
