Hey Guys,

I have an 04 2nd gen bike. Tried to start it a few months ago, but it had a completely seized twist throttle. Got around to investigate the issue- removed the throttle tube, checked the cables, removed the air box.

The throttle body linkage itself (which connects the throttle valves of both cylinders) is hard to actuate. I worked it open and closed several times, and it helped a little. It’s still too hard to open with the cable though.

Anybody have any ideas?

It was running a couple months earlier, I just let it idle to charge the battery.

I also found a large rodent nest on top of the air filter in the air box. Full of insulation. I didn’t see anything on the other side though.
