Hi I just lubricated the 2 throttle cables/assembly etc.
On reassembling (which required I loosen the handle bar to move the throttle housing off to reassemble ) -- the throttle lever spins smoothly and I can feel cables moving smothly inside their cable housings - but there is just free play whe turning throttle lever !!! No resistance as in opening throttle and no snap back.
I started the engine and it runs on perfect idle - but does not respond to turning of throtte lever.
Can the top cable slip off/come off throttle end when fiddling around with the cables at the handle bar end? If so isn't this dangerous? I'll have to take side fairing off and have a look - was riding perfectly 2 days ago but felt dry so thought I would lubricate cables etc.
Thanks Greg
