Twistgrip cable
Twistgrip throttle cable for control cable/American handlebar setups, 1960-1962 catalog listings, also known as D425.
This is the twistgrip cable listed in the parts books as 60-0425, also found under the older D425 number. It shows up in the section covering control cables and American-style handlebars, which tells us it runs from the twistgrip on the bar down to the carburetor, controlling throttle opening.

The catalog only ties this one to a couple of entries spanning 1960 to 1962, so we can't tell you beyond that which specific model it was fitted to. If you're matching up a control cable for a bike from that era with American bars, this is worth checking against what's on your machine, but confirm the fitment with us before you order.
As with any twistgrip cable, wear usually shows up as sticking or fraying at the ends, and a stretched or kinked cable will make the throttle feel inconsistent. Worth a look at the cable routing and outer casing condition when you're diagnosing throttle issues.
