yeah like youve ever done that... pj1 makes cable lube.. and a device to get it down the cable. but tyler is right.. take it apart.. clean it.. re-lube it. if you have to, take the cable right outta carb and spray the crap outta it..but it could be up in the throttle tube. is your end of the grip gone.. and sand and crap got in there???
