Throttle cables
Hey guys,
I'm a new user at the forum. First of all, excuse me for my English, I'm from Argentina and my mother tongue is Spanish.
Second, I would like to thank everybody for their posts and answers. This place is an encyclopedia.
And third, I would like if someone could help me regarding some issues with my bike.
After being sitting for almost two years – I’ve been traveling around-, once back home I have decided to take care of my bike.
I did carbs, sync, changed oil, spark plugs, filters, coolant, and after oiling the throttle cables, once I have assembled them again, the cables are loose. I have tighten the nuts on the top and at the carbs, but still, I can’t make them be tight.
Maybe I did something wrong while assembling them. I can’t exactly remember but I think that when I was removing them from the carbs, they look a little bit weird how they were mounted, and now makes me think that maybe were assembled in a bad way, they have stretched after use and now in the right position is impossible to make them be tight.
I would really thank if somebody can give me a clue, either how to set them, or what’s my fault.
Cheers,
Lisandro
