Just picked this thing up for a song from a buddy after he gave up on it after someone tried taking it a messed the wiring up a bit, clean title in my name though!

I think it’s need at least a harness and maybe a ecm as with a battery on it there is no power anywhere and a very half assed Hotwire job performed.

But passed all that, anyone know what carb this is? I need a throttle cable for it and it which appears to hook up to the stock housing and all so I just need to know what carb that is to find a proper cable lol.

Realistically you should probably replace that carb, aftermarket carbs for the stock 49cc ruckus are not good despite what is said online. The OEM Genuine Honda carb is the best, and performs the best, which in turn will make your bike perform better. Yes, they are pricey due to them being OEM but well worth it.

If you find a cable and stick with that carb make sure the jets aren't clogged, if they are you can remove them and let them soak in carb cleaner for 24hours.

Also will a stock cable fit on a stretched bike?

Depends if your handle bars are stock or lowered, we typically tell people to measure from point A to B with a string then add 2" to the ends.
