just found out on another thread that there is meant to be 2 cables. looks like one of the previous owners didn't bother replacing the push one

Yup. That's quite common. My FZR250 is running with only a pull cable. When I get round to doing a bit of work on it and a carb rebuild I will get a new push pull setup for it.

I just looked on cmsnl.com for your bike and the schematic looks like it only has 1 cable......not sure if its a euro or usa model though....
