Dellorto PHBH Snakehead

Hi all, has anyone fitted one of these and are they worth the money? I have just fitted a mid range tank and I cannot get a decent throttle cable routing.
Cheers

I have one, for similar reasons.

The only problem I had was with the cable adjuster unscrewing itself causing the revs to rise. It is like having an air leak, but not quite as dangerous (for the engine). The thread had worn in the 3D printed plastic.

I cured the problem with some Loctite, though it needs a bit more long-term testing as this was quite a recent issue.

Yes - I have one. I'd fit them on any new scooter

Great bit of kit - fitted for same reason - mid range tank.

I have my throttle cable routed to the "wrong" side and then it swoops in a curve under the tank back to the carb. The snake head makes this really easy.

I'd also be interested in a supplier. Not been able to find one for some months. Did find one apparently in stock, so ordered and paid. Later money refunded and told none in stock.
