I remember those, you could almost stop faster by dragging your feet vs hitting the brakes.

Throttle is starting to stick on my LR. Left for work the other day and under light throttle it doesn't snap back quickly there is a 1-2 second delay before it starts slowing down. Half throttle or more it will snap back.

Hopefully just my cables need lubricated, I've never done it and the bike is 6.5 years old at this point. Ordered the stuff to take care of it this week.

Could it one that someone has fiddled with the throttle lock? You'd get those symptoms with it tightened just a fraction.

I would be guessing that bike will not be stopping on a dime.

that was the first placed I checked lol. All good there, I disassembled everything yesterday and got it all lubricated, seems to have fixed the issue.

LR has been winterized and hooked up to a tender. So far, weather has been mild. If it gets into the 50s again I just might have to do some riding.

It's nice enough to take a ride today, but the imbeciles in our community put so much gravel down on the 2" of snow we got a couple days ago that I would destroy my paint if I went out. Complete idiots.

Damn. Mid-60s. I would be doing at least 100 miles. If it gets to 50 in my neck of the woods I will be doing a good 100 miles.
