Here are a couple pics with some arrows of the routing. It's easier to see then try to describe in words.

Route the cable in front of the handle bar clamp:



Route the cable down the left side frame (between radiator and frame). Then, it connects smoothly with the carb.



NOTE: When you connect the inner cable to the carb slide, make sure you have the inner cable end in the slot and the plastic spring seat tab correctly in the slot (to keep the cable located there). You will see this when you have the carb slide out.

Step 1: Simply remove throttle cable.

Step 2: Installation-Reverse removal procedure.

Wow! I thought my bike was clean, it' a dirty pig compared to that.

Done!The problem was the plastic protector for the cable adjuster on the perch needed to be hogged out.It was holding up the cable sheath from going to the adjuster thus depriving the slack I needed.
