  • Choke turns throttle

    Whenever I use my choke the throttle turns with it completely... what would cause this?

    Check to make sure the cables are not binding somewhere.

      Take the tank off and look. I can't think of a possible reason that would allow for that to happen and the throttle still work normally too.


      If the throttle isn't working normally, it's probably that someone connected the cables in the wrong locations.


      Either way, that's a "I need to look at it" issue. So if you can't figure it out with the tank off, take lots of pics and post them here.

        did you mean the housing for the choke cable pivots on the handle bar when using choke? my Kat is doing that. I'm going to remove housing and tape the bar to tighten.
