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?

How often do you lube your cables? Have you had the carb apart recently ?

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!

Check the cable isn't getting caught on your frame or plastics, this happened to my derbi senda a few times, might not be the problem you have but it was mine and wasn't hard to sort it so its worth a look
