    there are 2 adjusters, one on the throttle twistgrip mechanism where the cable comes out and one on the top of the carb where it goes in.

    cool cool, sounds better i probably wouldnt test it tonight to be honest if your edgy, unless its a very well lit area and your brakes are top notch, it is very cold down here in sheep land too, ice is a bitch, i dunno what its like up there?

    try and test it flat out somewhere quiet for 10 - 20minutes and by then everything will be warm and you should see if the problem is still happening

    ^^ just relised, providing the top end is run in and things... forget youve had it rebuilt

    mess with the tention? there should be FUCK ALL tention in the cable.. i think its probably from uyou ajusting it stiff and the cable starting to fray. loosen the ajuster off so you can move the cable sleeve slightly in the ajuster.. so a mm of free play basicly. if its still sticking with a new carb you need to renew all your cables.. is the oil cable still sitting in place as this will stop it returning
