It's also a safety for those who never lube the cables. In the occasional cable fail you can still pull back the throttle. Some might say kill switch. I say don't chance a perfect storm. Good luck! On Thu, Jan 31, 2019, 4:15 PM Darin Hatton After giving the 2 cable throttle system a little more

Also did you guys follow the procedure for reassembling the set and bolt tightening sequence? This helps alignment and reduces binding. It's in the service manual if you have one. Good luck! On Thu, Jan 31, 2019, 11:02 AM bobshel...@gmail.com No problem buddy! > > Sent from Yahoo Mail on Android

Check how you have your cables routed. If they move freely out of the bike but stick when installed you might have them bound up somewhere. -Kyle On Thu, Jan 31, 2019 at 10:21 AM Darin Hatton wrote: > I noticed mine does the same thing. Cables are free as can be, return > spring on carbs
