i was riping down a street at around 45kph and i like to rush up to stop lights and slam on the brakes, well it turnes out my throttle cable was frayed or something but it jammed in W.O.T and i pulled in the clutch(but then i cant use the front brakes) and the engine was just screaming! i hit the kill switch and swerved onto the sidewalk still doing around 40kph and onto a grass hill over the handlebars and into a muddy ditch. oh and this was a very busy intersection so i could not have ran the red. im ok and my bike seems ok but i need to get a new cable now. thank god i didnt blow the motor when i pulled the clutch in, ive never heard it rev that high before! any ways where can i get a new cable? its a powerking 80cc motor. can i get one at Canadian tire or home hardware or do i need to order it online. and why did the cable do that! it only had over 2000km on it. do i need to replace cables that often? well thanks and i hope i will be riding that thing again soon!
