B**dy throttle cable....

Well the beast is back with MMC munched through its 2nd throttle cable in 9k :shock:

The cable starts to wear through the sheath requiring more and more pressure to apply the throttle. This happens over a period of time and if left unchecked I am guessing the friction could increase until the spring would not be able to return the throttle to the off position and you would end up with a throttle jammed open :shock:

Has anyone else had this prob or is mine a one off?

One off AFAIK.....

Have them check how it's routed - if it's slotted past something it shouldn't it may kink it and do what you describe....
