Default Wot!!!

Went out yesterday for another ride. This is addicting!

First 2 miles was doing good. Trails a bit slick from rain and leaf cover, but was still able to stay in control. Until BAM! Hit a root that I didn't see and grab a hand full of throttle, it stuck! Before I could do anything the bike shot to the left and went up a 3 foot embankment then threw me about 20 feet down the trail on my face/belly! I'm so glad I spent the money on the gear!

Get the bike stood back up and shut the gas off. Leaned against a tree and started to see what in the world happened to my throttle.

Started to unscrew the cap where the slide goes into the carb. "Click" it opened back up and moved as it should. But upon more inspection when the throttle is turn to 100%, I can hear it click and gets stuck open.

I loosened the cap and it stopped that from happening. So now I am wondering if I am missing a seal or rubber o-ring that goes in the throttle cap on the carb?

Either way, I screwed it back on and rode for another 25 miles without any issues. Was just a bit more cautious with the throttle and picking my lines better.
