But it's generally easier, (imo) to leave it mounted to the bike, while doing so.
IMO you should never put a naked flame anywhere near your bike, I've seen bikes go up in flames because of people using lighters to look at something on their bike in the dark, not thinking of the likely consequences, petrol is flammable o_O

Hey welcome. I just got a 96 cbr 600 also and I'm 5'10" 175lbs and I find it fits perfect. The last sport bike I rode was a gs1100 and that was way too big. I could barely touch the ground. These 600's are the perfect height etc. also when I got mine into the shop the throw was sticking also. It turned out that the PO had put a washer between the bar end and the throttle tube and tightened the crap out of it due to some screwed up threads on the bar end. I fixed the treads and put it on properly and it works fine now. You never know what you'll find I guess it was faster to do it wrong rather than just fixing it right he first time. I also lubed the cable.
