    Pushed the bike out to give it a wash and i felt the throttle grip was not feeling right

    give it a tub dried her off and started to pull the housing off .......there was no spring to its return

    As i pulled it apart the return cable had fell to the ground..........The father inlaw had noticed

    That it was a little rusted and it had showed that it had been broken for a while..........      

    If anyone has a spear set and want to sell pm me
