The switch body is binding, so take and wrap the bars with a few layers of masking tape and reinstall the swtich over it. This will space the 2 halves just a bit. Trim the tape off the bars around the switch housing after your done
And to Gatekeeper...the channel the throttle grip runs in inside the switch housing gets greased as well.MY BIKES..1977 GS 750 B, 1978 GS 1000 C (X2)

I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.Comment

Thanks for the thread high-jinx, enjoyable. It's the cable ends. I just took the cables out and there is plenty of free play. I'm going to try and sand them down to fit a little better and a little lube inside.
ThanksComment
