I rebuilt my top end and after putting everything back together the bike is running great.

Unfortunately i cant get the slack out of the throttle. I adjusted the throttle and idle near the handle as much as I could and there is still a decent amount of play in the throttle. Any suggestions on how to get rid of this?

I'm guessing the idle cable has come off of the cable pulley down at the carb or throttle body.

Check both cables at the carb, insure that they are in their respective socket and I lock wire them at that point to the bracket. Also adjust both cables.
