If I'm not mistaken, with the '81-'85 model year twin shock bikes, you can use the 'choke' cables in place of the throttle cables if one breaks .

I haven't had the 'choke' cable off at the handlebar end in a while, I'm not real sure the cable ends are the same or not .
'81 R65
'82 R65 LS
'84 R65 LS
'87 Moto Guzzi V65 Lario
'02 R1150R
Riding all year long since 1993 .
I'll give up my R65, when they pry my cold dead hands from the handlebars !!!!!
