YEa I was suprised they got here so fast. And it worked no problem first try. Now I just gotta work at making this thing a little quicker

[kingunis]

Only issue I'm having now which I had before is the twist throttle won't spring back. If I can't it stays cranked untill I roll it back myself. Any one know why this is

Tube your cable with WD

[crf50kid309]

Make sure no dirt is in the throttle tube also

[TTXR]

Since you changed out the throttle cable, I don't think the cable is sticking. It can't hurt to put some WD-40 or powder graphite on the throttle side where it hooks up to the twist throttle. I think what you need to do is open the throttle back up and wipe it clean and lubricate the twist channel. If dirt got inside there from a fall or sand is inside it could very well bind up on you. This is important. The spring inside the carburetor is strong enough to return the throttle to idle position, but not if there is sand or dirt inside..If the carburetor seems perfect, leave well enough alone. If you do clean the twist throttle and it still does not return to idle, replace the spring inside the carburetor as it is old and may have lost some tension/rebound being capped up since new..Again, quite pleased. I have some more related xr crf 50 take off parts that I will list soon in the classifieds. PM for a list.

Yea I'll try tomorrow and take off the twist throttle and clean it out to see if that helps. Also how would properly adjust the cable to get maximum throttle out of it or is the same no matter what you do

[TTXR]

The adjustment is mostly for removing slack in the cable. It will not give you more throttle than the slide fully opened up. Twist the throttle and look inside the back of the carburetor and see if the slide is all the way up.

I am working on a parts list. I just do not know what to price the stuff at? Can we post as "best offer" on parts? Or, do I need to come up with some kind of idea what I want for used stock take off parts plus shipping? Every Forum has different rules...
