 Anybody else have problems with the cable ball end popping out of the
holder on the end of the throttle chain? I squeezed the socket a tad
tighter a few weeks ago but it popped out again last night.

John:
The normal tension of the throttle shouldn't be enough to pop that
ball out continuously. As others have mentioned, it might be a throttle
cable going bad. However before you go out and buy new cables, check the
cable splitter attached to the frame rail under the tank. If this is
gummed up it could be the source of the problem, and a good lube might
be a cheap fix.
