    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

How the heck do I get these out of the bike?

I'm most of the way there, but I can't get the throttle cable/choke cable off -- do I remove the plate they attach to which is attached to the top of carb 3?

I've got the service manual, which is great at telling you what to do once they are off the bike, but they don't tell you how to get them off.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers,

Hey Satch...Yes, remove the mounting bracket to the #3 carb for the choke, slide the spring-loaded clip that secures the end of the cable to the linckage and pull the cable out. You'll have to roll the throttle to the wide open position (I prop it open with a screw driver) and then work the end of the throttle cable out of the half circle and you're off and running.
