My throttle sticks now?????

I removed the stock restricter screw under the throttle and now the damn thing sticks! I tried putting the screw back in but it doesn't help just makes things stick worse. Please Help ASAP.

Thank you in advance!

Solution to my problem: Throttle was on the bars too far due to me crashin' the thing. A few hammers the other direction and am back to blingin'

cut the end off the throttle and you will never have that problem again, and if you drop your bike on the throttle side you won't break it.

if you cut the end off, dirt will get in there or your grip will rub on the bar and the throttle will stick more.

loosen the throttle push it all the way in the bar then back it out 1/4 inch then tighten er up...i wouldn't cut the end off either

man, I was screwing around doing burnies the other day and my throttle stuck wide open in first gear. To make things worse, the whole throttle assembly turned and I couldnt find the kill switch and my 50 was flyin all over the place. I was trying to hold it up in the air so I could find the kill switch but the chain would get close to my leg and I'd drop it a little and the rear tire would hit the ground and it would fly back up in the air again. It was hillarious. I did it in front of a whole group of people too.. I wish I had it on video. Hope it never happens again.

ive crashed so many times i dont even have a shut off. i didnt like it anyways cuz while doin high chair **** my leg would hit the switch off. both of my fiddys have no kil switch. have to use the key and my throttle gets stuck too. i hate when that happens. my friend ran into a parked car & got his leg caught between the rear wheel & fender. the throttle got stuck & his leg has a HUGE burn mark. takes up his whole right calf
