[QUOTE="BobOdenweller, post: 657801, member: 15870"] I think I am close to completely resolving this. I did these three things which each helped slightly: 1) pulled the grip back so it is not even close to rubbing. 2) used degreaser to clean the motor especially around the "carb". 3) Re-routed the throttle cable to the opposite side of the spark plug wire. See the image below. The throttle snaps back nice and smooth now. About 2 seconds. Next I will be replacing my G2 throttle tube with their newer derlin bushing version. I am also replacing my grips for Hotgrips and I will be extra careful to leave a nice gap so it won't rub. I'm also installing a Power Commander 5, but that's not related to this. Finally I will unwind the spring one revolution. I do that with some trepidation because I know first hand how difficult it can be to rewind the spring. I got the idea on this website to secure a small gage wire to the spring prior to unwinding in order to simplify rewinding if that becomes necessary.
