Thank You. I am working on a 1964 Honda CA95 (Baby Dream) This will be very helpful! The throttle has been very sticky, and now I know tomorrow's project!
Excellent video! I just bought a running 66 Baby Dream that ran perfectly yesterday, so this morning, I went out to take it for my first actual ride, I went to start it and as soon as it turned over it went to WOT. I think I killed it before any damage occurred, but now I'm afraid to try to start it without knowing how the damn thing works! This is just what I needed. Thanks a ton!
Thank you. That video was so helpful. It's exactly what I needed. I Can't Believe I came across this right when I needed it most. I really appreciate you putting this content out there and I love your restoration videos, they are very inspiring to me. I have a 1980 cb750 that I bought from some one that was about 75% done making into a cafe racer and restoring it at the same time. I think I will most likely change direction a little and make it into more of a scrambler style bike. I had bought a 1970 cb100 to use to teach my daughter how to ride and the throttle on that bike had the same sticky throttle problem you talked about in this video. Seeing you show how you solved that problem was exactly what I needed and as always your explanation is easy to understand. Thanks again and I look forward to seeing your videos as they come out. Please keep up the good work.
Thanks man, working on my 79 CB750 and although it’s got clip on bars now and a newer throttle assembly lubing the cables and knocking the rust also worked for me!
This was just the video I was looking for! I have the same problem with my 67 CA160. You just helped me a ton! I am hoping that with a new throttle cable and fixing the twist grip, my newly cleaned carburetor will stop leaking through the overflow tube.
@@stevenrandall9601 yes I agree. I cleaned mine well and just keep it filled with gas. Once you coat it there's no going back. If a tank is thin or has tiny holes then that's pretty much your only choice.
wow thank you very very much for a real good and clear video cause 'i have the same problem with my honda express nc50,i just never worked on it cause i dont know how..so it should be the same procedure on my moped right?thanks again and god bless you.......
Did you happen to do a video on getting the carb end reinstalled? Followed everything in the video, however, mine is still stuck open. Assuming it’s a spring issue but as far as I can tell I have the carb end with spring/valve installed correctly. Wondering if the cable is getting pinched up inside but hard to tell what’s going on there.
Unfortunately I didn't make a video putting the end back together. I did do a carb rebuild video, not sure if it will help but ill include a link. Another important thing is cable routing from the carb to the twist throttle. Even a slight bend in the wrong place could cause an issue. Just a thought. th-cam.com/video/2t49wYh6_2s/w-d-xo.html
@@AdamzGarage thanks a ton. Yeah I’m pulling the whole cable off today to reroute. She’s stuffed up in the bar with another thick wire so I’m wondering if maybe something is kinked up in there. The little piece the grip end sits in looks a bit chewed up too, hard to find a replacement, so may take a bit of sandpaper to her to ensure the cable isn’t grinding up in that gap as well.
@@AdamzGarage I have access to sand blasting at my work. But I took this apart years ago. All the notes I put on the wires are faded . 😞 It has no turn signals so many stray wires in the headlight socket not connected. 🤷🏼♂️ The wiring diagrams don’t seem to match my 52 year old wires either. I don’t think the engine needs any of that to start. Has not started since 2015
@@AdamzGarage what year do you have..? Mine is a K0 so far harder to find parts than a K1+ Anyone know if that screen on the carb HAS to be there for it to run?
I’m doing a 1966 Honda ct90 rebuild and this video is huge helping hand. Gradually learning and thanks to people like you. 👌🏽💪🏽

Awesome! I'm really glad it helped. Good Luck on your projects. We have to keep these old machines moving 👍

Thats great. glad it helped. hope your project goes well !! mines leaking at the petcock, just got my new gaskets.
@@AdamzGarage I have to replace my petcock as well. I'm thinking about not sealing my tank. Seems better to just keep it filled with gas!

Thanks for the video. My throttle on my CT90 is hanging up, now I believe I can easily get it properly moving again.
Great. Hope it goes well 👍
Having the exact same issue atm. Once I kick start, it goes from starting to redlining withing 3 seconds. No return movement at all when twisted.
@@Yutter89 Hi. Did you figured it out? My 74 CT90 does the same.
Thanks lad. This was a great deal of help for me
THANKS!!! working on a S90 with no throttle when i got it was wondering how to get that thing back together THANKS!!!
Big help, thanks!
Glad it helped 👍
Thank you!! This is very helpful for the throttle issues on my 81 c70
Great video! Good explanation!
Thanks hope it helped.
What I found for cleaning out the inside like is big bore shot gun barrel brush works great.
Very helpful. Thanks!
Another big thanks. I have the same issue

Thank you, Sir
Is this a similar fix if your throttle is acting like it has cruise control like that’s why it’s sticking?
Thats definitely possible. Sometimes they stick just a little bit so the bike wants to go on its own.

I’ll have to try this... mine is still really sticky
Good luck with your project. It worked well for mine.
@@AdamzGarage I think I just like painting stuff 😆
