sticky slide?

This has happened 3 times while riding. When I chop the throttle to downshift or slow down the motor will stay revved up. If I flip the run switch off and on quickly and dump the clutch it will start running normal. I have one 35 pwk that was just rebuilt two weeks ago and I installed vforce3's when I re installed the Carb. It happened once or twice all weekend at dunefest last week and twice today just ripping in the field. Elevation between the two is sea level to 500 ish feet in my field.

how old is your throttle cable and when was the last time you lubed it? its very very rare for a slide to stick majority of the time it is in the cable or in the throttle box. on a round slide it can happen if the guide pin goes bad but not on a pwk.

The cable is brand new. Only two weekends on it. I can feel the throttle (twist) close in my hand. The motor just stays revved. I had the motor leak tested when the Carb was rebuilt. It passed with no issues. I did notice when I switched to the single 35, when the bike wasn't running I could twist the throttle and feel the carb slide spring rubbing on each coil. I can't feel it while riding because its a banshee and it vibrates a little if you can believe that lol.
