My throttle started to stick. When rolled off it wouldn't fully return. I took the twist grip apart and lubed it and the cable with WD40. In the motorway service station No further problems.

 

I know now that WD40 will dry out and go sticky. When I next service it I'm going to redo it with a light oil.

Hi G,

Lubricate all the linkages conecting the throttle bodies with some good penetrating fluid and you should be good to go. Unlike the throttle these are more exposed to the elements and require attention from time to time. Good luck. Ciao
