Posted September 30, 201113 yr Hi has anyone had problems with there throttle. I had my bike pinned and then it wouldnt stop. Apparantly it might be something to do with the carb. not sure any thoughts? cheers
September 30, 201113 yr Author ye the bike wouldnt start the other day so had it apart and it then was goin good. throttle still sticks though. wonderin if it needs a new cable. i havnt lubed recently so maybe thats what i should do. when i close the throttle completely theres a little click from inside the throttle though maybe thats it cheers
October 7, 201113 yr Sounds very much to me like the throttle cale is sticking. Dissconect it at both ends, you're best off leaving the oil pump cable connected as it's a hasstle. Drop oil down one end and use the cable to push it down. Keep going til it comes out the other end. Or pump loads in and leave it to gravity to do the hard work! Make sure you connect everything back in the right when you re assemble!
