Single carb throttle cable stiff??

[JohnB1953]

I have been working on the 1981 1100 trying to figure out this single carb update. All seems to be going ok but I noticed that the throttle effort is really hi. The cable was lubed before I started and seemed to work fine. In this instillation I did not shorten the cable. But once together it doesn't move freely and requires more effort that I feel it should. I have to do more checking but just wondering if anyone else has had this issue when converting to single carb? Thanks JohnB

Thanks for the info.I see you are a Brother in Arms I was in 71-75 was a great experience. I found out while working on it today the hole in the handlebars that is to keep the switch /throttle mounting from moving is in a little too far causing binding, moved that and is working ok. JohnB
