Default Throttle Cables Seized

Took the wife for about 3 hr ride last night everything went well.
Got up this morning and debugged the thing and cleaned it up real good, pulled it out in the yard for some pictures, when I cranked it back up the throttle would not twist, called several people and they all said spray the cables and it should free up. I have done that, did not work, took cables loose from both ends and the return cable will not move in the housing.
As my luck goes called 5 dealerships no one has cables had to order them so I am out until Friday.....
I guess this is a result of p/o not riding and not keeping the cables oiled.
