About This Product
This MCS chrome throttle assembly is an OEM-style single-cable unit designed for 1974–1980 XL Sportster, FL, and FX models. The chrome throttle clamp replicates the factory design and provides smooth, reliable cable actuation. Grips are not included, so you can pair it with your preferred style. If your original throttle housing is worn, cracked, or corroded, this reproduction gives you a fresh, factory-correct replacement that bolts on with no modifications. A solid choice for restorations or refreshing tired controls on your Ironhead or Shovelhead.
Manufacturer part number: 500490.
