Does yall's bike do this too?
 
I noticed that when I twist the right grip the bike speeds up, when I let off it slows down. Hmmmm, I think I'm on to something...

I think we should issue you a PWI (posting while intoxicated)

You might be on to something . Do notice that the faster to twist the grip the faster the bike goes ? This information is very important in troubleshooting the problem and you say that when you let off the grip it slows down , very unusual this might take a little longer to figure out . I would suggest that you do not ride the bike until we figure this out .

Mine kinda does the same thing...only it's just my engine that speeds up. Now if I put mine in gear and let the clutch out it does exactly like yours does. I guess mine was a built on Monday bike. See that...no two bikes are alike.

Think we are missing the big picture. The man has a problem we need to help. I must again say you need to stay off the bike until this is figured out. I will go start my bike and see if it does the same

As much as I twist the grip, I can't get it to do anything. Maybe it has something to do with the metal pipe inside the grip? I try to twist it right, left, it doesn't matter, nothing happens!

Please help.
