[QUOTE="knowiam, post: 1144622, member: 73089"] [b]Got Sand?[/b] I ride in So.Cal. too.... Lotta sand. When my throttle was sticking, I ended up taking the cable out of the throttle assembly and slipping off the grip. A little WD40 cleaned it all out. I'm suggesting sand cause that is what happens to me after a couple of unplanned "get offs". My most recent and epic crash came as a result of a stuck throttle...my friends claim I just panic'ded and grabbed a handful - (whiskey throttle)...but they are all liars. :nod: After you've inspected, cleaned and reassembled the throttle assembly... make sure it is positioned correctly and the bolts are tight... the throttle opens and fully closes in all steering positions. [if this is too basic for you, I apoligize-but it is pretty serious] Also, check your cables for kinks or chaffing... they should not be pulled or stressed during any steering position. Replace the cables if they are worn out. Lube cables per your manufacturers owners manual. Good luck! :cool: Ken [/QUOTE]
