[QUOTE="bluesdog, post: 1169600, member: 25896"] Mine did that for a while, until I removed the fairing to gain access, as mcatrophy mentioned, and polished the rails the assembly rides on, slightly tightened up the cable, and finally lubed the rails with a small amount of lithium soap grease. You don't need much lube, as the mechanism has some kind of nylon(?) bushings where it runs on the rails, but the cable tension has to be just right. [/QUOTE]
