Finally utilized this video haha, got rid of my trash oem cables (50k miles old lol) and threw on some Barnett performance cables. Tutorial was super easy to follow, but man I felt like a wimp pulling the cables from the control housing, those things were in there tight! Took advantage of having the controls open and took out the stupid 'cruise control' dial as well. A few things idk if I was dumb or if I just misunderstood. But when I was adjusting the cables, I went off the butterfly valve inside the throttle body being open 100% then gave it the additional turn as you suggested, rather than looking at the wheel on the side of the throttle body. For the return cable that one I'm not sure I have adjusted correctly. The body of the cable was touching the spring inside the slot on the throttle body from the get go, so I couldn't adjust till then. So I adjusted until the return felt right, and backed off a full clockwise rotation and it feels nice, smooth, and snappy now. Finally went in and ordered that little cap as well so I can remove the vapor canister up front next weekend. I think I'm going to keep the bracket in place though, it looks like the perfect bracket to hold a horizontal mounted oil cooler 🤞 Thanks again for the time and effort in this videos man, I check back on them all the time!

I bought my first motorcycle I never worked on any of them or even cars. I noticed that iddle and throttle cable are "loose" this metal part 7:29 that goes straight to that plastic is very loose how to fix that? and also is that litttle wheel under the throttle is mechanic cruise control? because my 2007 dyna street bop has the same thing. But please tell me what to do with cables I assume this part that touches that plastic underneath suppose to be solid , mine is very loose both cables .
