NEED HELP PLEASE CHAPS zzr600 cable probs - Dinger1962 - 14-11-16
i know its not a fazer but the old guys bike will probably outlive him hope someone can throw some light on this--i am currently helping sort a throttle cable issue on mates zzr 6 when the "roll off cable" is attached it wont "roll off".we swapped and changed between new and old cables with exactly the same result tried different tensions etc--so my question is can the bike run ok without "roll off cable" ?would be greatful for any input as i want my garage back to get on with my fazer winter tidy up and service thanks Stu--

The close cable is a safety feature: CV carbs are vacuum operated and were the spring on the butterfly shaft to snap, the carbs could run away (clearly dangerous and/or potential to damage the engine). The close cable allows the butterflies to be shut down, whatever else may be going on.
Personally I'd makes sure the closing cable works and is present; there must be a reason that it won't work (it's not binding in the rigid outer by the twist grip?)

Sounds like the cable has been routed incorrectly of if a new cable, the inner is too short. Dangerous practice to run without it and definitely not recommended. As a get you home temporary measure it will work, but should not be more than that.
