throttle cable

[Guest]

hi all and welcombe

i ride a suzuki ts50x on a cbt

ok right my motorbike has just had a new bore, piston, spark plug now with a new throttle cable and boysen reeds

only downside now it its revving to redline 11000rpm and staying there without me even touching the throttle

some people say tap the side of the carb which might release any stuck floats or its a case of taking it apart v.carefully to see if it is stuck (v. carefully so as not to unstick(sp) it and find nothing wrong)

Or you could lube the throttle cable and check its not snagging on anything which could cause the red line effect

Check the routing of throttle cable, make sure nothing's pulling it tight. I put my tank back on over mine once and it revved like hell.

if none of these thread work, then...

Take the top of the carb and turn the slide round, you probably have it in the wrong way round, which means its fully open..

it should have a cut out and a notch, these need to be on the same side..
