Hi guys.
Looking for a new throttle cable for the v8 westy. Anybody got ideas?

Make one? You can buy the basics from a bike shop cheaply - I got enough to make 4 for the SD1 for a lot less than one ready made one. The adjusters etc can be re-used.

As other Dave said, rear brake cable inner will do it nicely.

Regards,
Dave

ETA : Make sure your pedal stop is correctly set so that you are not straining the cable at WOT

I bought a universal kit from Venhils, had everything I needed plus was a linered outer. Very good quality and very quick delivery!
