Author Message   Wolk625 Posted on Saturday, July 30, 2011 - 09:50 pm:        I know this is on recall but has anybody tried tackling this themselves? is it an easy fix?   01x1buell Posted on Saturday, July 30, 2011 - 09:53 pm:        do they still do the recall on that?/ its 10 years later.   Wolk625 Posted on Saturday, July 30, 2011 - 10:40 pm:        going to ask an HD employee tomorrow if they still fix it   01x1buell Posted on Saturday, July 30, 2011 - 10:43 pm:        i am sur they will fix it, but for $80 an hour   Buellistic Posted on Sunday, July 31, 2011 - 10:57 am:        Get a FACTORY SERVICE MANUAL and PARTS BOOk for your YEAR/MODEL and learn to be your own MECHANIC ... For PARTS www.AmericanSportBike.com ...   Preybird1 Posted on Sunday, July 31, 2011 - 11:26 am:        I have never heard of that recall or problem before?? The only time my throttle would stick is after i installed some different grips and some bar ends. The bar ends were rubbing against the throttle and it would stick like a poor mans cruise control. That has to be one of the easiest fixes.   Buellistic Posted on Sunday, July 31, 2011 - 01:29 pm:        THROTTLE and CABLES class 101, just PM me if you want a copy ...

A friend also bought out a buell inventory sometime around the shut-down. I recognised this kit and snagged it.I've yet to install the dual cable clamp to secure them to each other because they need only to be properly adjusted AGAINST EACH OTHER. I'm CERTAIN the above post by Buellistic descibes the same.READ it   Kalali Posted on Monday, August 01, 2011 - 11:07 am:        "I have never heard of that recall or problem before??" I don't think they issued a recall notice for this but for MY 2K+ X1s they did add a small bracket which holds the ends of the throttle cables near the intake in place. I don't think its absence will cause "sticky" throttle unless the end(s) get dislodged which is not very likely.   Buellistic Posted on Monday, August 01, 2011 - 11:22 am:        There was THROTTLE CABLE CLAMP KIT which held the throttle cables together at the bracket on the carburetor ... "i" saw this as a SAFETY ISSUE on my 1997 S3T after "i" bought it and safety wired my throttle cables to the bracket on the carburetor ...   Bandm Posted on Monday, August 01, 2011 - 12:21 pm:        SAFETY RECALL CODE 0827 - THROTTLE CONTROL SYSTEM http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/384 2/B056-263602.pdf Like LaFayette, I safety wired mine.   Wolk625 Posted on Monday, August 01, 2011 - 02:56 pm:        ^^^-- exactly what i was looking for thanks guys!
