Throttle sticking
Last weekend I went riding with a few friends of mine. Anytime I went through a whoop section or hit a rocky section at mid throttle or higher my throttle would get stuck open. Each time it did it I would pull the clutch in and romp on the throttle, which would free up my throttle. I have taken my carb. out to see if maybe the slide was sticking on something, but have not found anything that would cause it to get stuck. Also checked the throttle cable, and it was working properly. (I went ahead and oiled the cable) Is there something else that I am missing that would give me this problem.

Broken slide return spring? Cable frayed inside the housing? Pulley binding in the throttle housing?

if none of that works - check your throttle tube/grips - grip could be binding on bark busters (if you have them...)

Depending on the cable routing - you can also have the cable pull out of the adjuster and hang up on it. Safety wire cable to adjusters at each end of throttle cable to avoid this issue.

Needle jamming in nozzle from sand/dirt in float bowl. It doesn't take much.

Check the routing first since its the easiest. Give a yank on the cable and see if anything happens and make sure there is some slack. I stuck a bottle of water behind my headlight once and it caused it to rev up out of control.

Not reading all replies, but my experience of this happening a few times, was due to my preference of having too much slack in the throttle cable.

Have you taken almost all the slack out and made sure the cable isn't catching anywhere?
