Throttle Sticks only once in a while?

crooklyn · Dec 13, 2009

Last weekend at the end of the ride i stopped and let go of the throttle yet it was still moving. I had to stay on the brake, and then i hit the kill switch and nothing.
My buddy comes running over and he opens the hood and it just stops.
Then today after just going for a ride around the yard it felt like it wanted to do the same thing.

FYI = just installed riser with powermadd throttle block.

Oh yeah it seems to be revving pretty high? what should it idle at?

same thing happened to me this weekend after moving throttle cables around.

Make sure the end of your throttle is in the proper spot (little slot) and fully popped into place. Mine was a little off to the side resulting in a slight kink of the cable and a high idle (and sometimes no deceleration when letting off the throttle.)

Mines idles at about 1500, not sure if that's 'right'

did you do a throttle cable extension? when i did mine it started sticking. just greased that slide on the extension. no problems since.
