Hey chemiker, question for ya. I received the kit and did the clutch cable no problem. All though it needs to be replaced i think because the rubber grommets on the lever end is torn to bits and its squeaking somewhere.
I took off the throttle cable under cover. I lubed the cable towards the headlight no problem, but the throttle cable on the seat side i could not get the injector to go down no matter how hard i tried. I ended up bending the injection tube pretty bad and gave up but for next time are there any tips to do this cable on an 05 fz6??
Anyways this was my first maintenance as a new rider for my bike. I love the bike so much more now that the clutch cable is freed :BLAA:
Sorry to hear you're having trouble.
I have never experienced that, both throttle cables are always very easy for me. Is there any corrosion or dirt around there?
One thing that might help is to actuate the cable (twist the throttle) a little while trying to insert the tube. But you'll need a new tube first. PM me your address and I'll get another one out tonight.
