Hey all,

So first day on my Divvy and took her to work. On the way a few things decided to show and cause some issues, firstly she decided to rev up to around 4k RPM with no throttle so I'm guessing that the throttle is just sticking?
Secondly I noticed that unless I held the clutch at biting point the rev's also went up, otherwise it would just be it's normal self.

I'm going to take a guess and say that both the throttle cable and clutch cable need replacing?

If you need any more info please say. This is my first bike so it's all new to me unlike my car. I can also get pic's but it's getting really dark here atm and I'm at work (19/12/14 - 16:25)

Thanks,

Rafen.

PS: She pulls amazing well in 4th, 5th and 6th gear :D
