Interesting John,

I've always used the motion pro cables too, for reasons listed above. On my last bike I did notice a bit of sediment inside the slide which would indicate that some water had made entry.

I recall having similar issues with a stock cable and a Lectron; to a greater extent.

I might have a good look at the motion pro on installation on the new bike.

This was before I realized I need to take the cable out before trying to rotate it that way. I put the jacket back correctly into the throttle and opened it a few times and it?s back to normal.
At least that?s what I think happened.

Yeah. As above, if you grab the throttle and give it a pull it'll pull the end out of the throttle housing and subsequently pull the slide up.

Not so much fun if your bum bag/tool roll/fanny pack is forward facing and snags up on the cable. Bike takes off forward, body gets yanked back pulling the cable more, making it even more difficult to get back forwards to recover. Keep fingers on the clutch; and even better to wire tie the cable ends or use a captive cable.

Thanks for your answer,

I'm french, and my english level is not very good, and the google technical translation was not very good either!

but I think I understand what you explained. I will look at the insertion of the cable in the handle.

Yes the insertion of the cable in the handle was the problem.
