Throttle Problem help?

[toastinator]

Whenever i twist the throttle it wont automaticly go back, (maybe getting stiffer?)

Ive tried lubing the cables (seemed to help alittle but still sticks)

almost like cruise control! very dangerous haha

any ideas on the problem? ive checked the grip over and over, its not touching anything or rubbing on anything

The spring back force comes from the throttle body, if you lubed the cables and they're still stuck I'd check there. Throttle body is under the airbox.

Although, I'd check and see if the cables aren't kinked or crushed first though.

Yea, check for kinks or crushed parts. Also maybe disconnect the cable from the body and see if it springs back on its own.

Ill check that in a few days and get back, thanks!

You really don't want to be riding your bike if the throttle's not auto returning

I adjusted The Nuts where the cable meets the Throttle body, (took a few trys) but Shes all lose and Goes completly back every time and no sticking. also started up the bike to make sure It didnt effect anything. All looks well! Will check back in time. thanks!
