went to ride today and my throttle only opens about 1/4 inch. This bike has cruise control . It is like frozen up. Removed airbox
and throttle grip top housing and really don't see anything really sticking out that would bind this up A new set of shielded stainless cables were put on this about 3 years ago. Wondering if the bind up might be where the junction is where the cruise wires attach to the cable. any ideas? Can't say I saw this one before??
When was the last time you oiled your lines? If it hasn't been since they were put on, it is time. Not sure if this is the problem, but still needs to be done.
