Author Message   Rahbert Posted on Sunday, June 22, 2008 - 01:47 am:        My 08 feels like the throttle is binding; I have to turn it to decrease power and as I do so it seems to bind on something. Has anyone noticed this and if so I wonder what is causing it? Also, is there a wire instead of a cable (electronic cue of throttle position)?   Bigkuri Posted on Sunday, June 22, 2008 - 05:32 am:        Mine did this and I think it is a pretty common thing. Two things: 1) Make sure that both the throttle cables have some slack in them at all times through the movement of the steering lock. 2) Make sure the cam under the airbox is moving. Mine was binding really badly (after just 500 miles!), and a touch of WD40 fixed it immediately.   Rahbert Posted on Tuesday, June 24, 2008 - 12:26 am:        Thanks - I pulled the airbox and gave the cam a shot of tri-flow. Now the throttle snaps back like its supposed to.
