The hazard
On certain vehicles, a loose or bent inner throttle cable wire may derail off the rotor in the throttle housing on the handlebar. If this occurs, the throttle cable could be pinched between the rotor and the housing, causing the throttle to stick. Correction: Dealers will replace the rotor with a new design.
