Problem .... hard to explain.

[NOLA_BigDog]

I was on my bike all day and on the way home when leaving the last place i stopped : bike stalled a twice when trying to take off. This usually doesnt happen.

The idle also seemed really low to the point where it seemed like my dog was about to stall at the red light... like the bike was losing power or the clutch wasnt working properly.

On the way home the bike felt like the clutch was about to go out. It seemed like the bike was making a tinging noise when moving more than usual but i could have been listening to hard. It also seemed lie the clutch had alot of play.

When i got home i examined the throttle and i seemes like the throttle isnt pulling the cable like it should either. One of the cable that goes in underneath the start stop buttons is very loose and i dont know how to tighten.

As of now my dog is out of commision ... quick help! :bang:

any ideas? ray?

open the hand controls and put the cable in again.


ps be careful!!!

yep pull the hand control apart and check out the cables, sounds like one is broke or came out of the holder throwing off your idle and making things clater a bit.

yes be careful because the little brass ferule on the end of the cable is a slippery little sucker that you can drop and lose quite easily. In case you don't know, the cables are simply push fit into the hand controls - no threads to screw in.
