Reverse Control Cable for Yamaha VX Cruiser Deluxe
The reverse control cable (OEM reference F1K-6149C-00-00) is a genuine-style shift cable designed for Yamaha 2007 and 2008 VX Cruiser Deluxe watercraft, enabling smooth engagement of the reverse gate. This cable connects the handlebar control to the jet pump reverse mechanism, ensuring responsive shifting while docking or maneuvering at low speed.
Overview
This reverse control cable is a direct replacement for the original factory cable on 2007 and 2008 Yamaha VX Cruiser Deluxe models, restoring precise reverse operation. It transmits cable pull from the control lever to the reverse gate on the jet pump, allowing you to back up or hold position in the water. This cable is for Yamaha owners who need to fix a snapped, stretched, or corroded reverse linkage.

Good To Know
Q: How do I know if my reverse cable needs replacement? A: If the reverse lever feels slack, binds, or fails to engage the reverse gate, the cable may be stretched or damaged. A visual inspection for kinks or corrosion can confirm the need for replacement.
Q: Can I install this cable without removing the jet pump? A: Yes, the cable can be routed and attached from the handlebar down to the pump area without full pump removal, though access may be tight. Use care when routing to avoid sharp bends that could bind the cable.
Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
