i was ridin home from work today when out of nowhere the throttle when "dead"... after a second i figured out that the throttle still work but i had to turn it back ALOT futher than normal to get a response from the carbs .. the engine still ran fine just a loose throttle ...also it does not roll back after u let it go now .... seemed that i had to roll on it further and further as i got closer to home .... when u let go it doesnt stick it just doesnt roll back .. u can roll it forward(towards to front of bike) manually and it just keeps going .. doesnt lock/stop.. so i am assuming(<<yes i know the saying) that the "pull cable" came loose or broke gonna check it out tomorrow just want to see if anyone had any input or a good place to get replacements that werent outrageously priced. thanks for your time
