haven't been on the bike for awhile now due to surgery last week and really haven't been riding prior to then. i went out in the garage today to start it up, i like starting things that has not been run in a while. after a good warm up i throttled it and the throttle stuck. so it looks like i have some greasing to do tomorrow
ok i need to relive this thread i started. been working on the throttle cable for a while this morning. i still cant get it un stuck. you roll the throttle back and it sticks. i have lubed up everything i can get to. lubed up the grip. sprayed cable stuff down the wires.
nothing is bound up or anything changed in the past few weeks.
the loosen / tighten nut under the grip i can loosen it up a lot and it snaps back(sort of) but then the cable inside the grip is loose. what can i look for next.
