Hi gentlemen, this isn't a major problem but my bike just failed the MOT (annual UK road worthiness test) on the throttle cable routing. A few weeks ago I was playing with different setups after changing the throttle cable for a new one and routed it in a manner that I thought was the best possible setup. I routed it from the left side, then though the support beam from the main frame tube to the headstock and when I tested it, it only tweaked the throttle very slightly, even though logically it shouldn't have done at all because it had plenty of slack that way. Since it was flagged up during the yearly MOT test, I put it back to standard but now the throttle comes on hard when turning right and thus would still result in a fail. I specifically remember that the standard routing goes around the front of the headstock and around the right hand throttle tube, which I remember that I noted as being odd as it goes around two things that could help tweak it when turning the bars. Pics are below of what I recall of the standard routing: I am going to try to route it behind the suspension tube rather than around it and see if that solves the problem and will dutifully report back with a pic since I have started this thread when I may well still find the solution for myself, but it was necessary so that I can get back legal as soon as possible. Edit: I have Googled "Enduro throttle cable routing" since they are all the same pretty much anyway.
I found the secret. Firstly I went back to the channel under the tank instead of going between the rad pipe And then around the headstock and over the right hand triple clamp instead of around the fork tube There is only now a slight throttle increase when full lock to the right, barely off idle.
