idle keeps dying after warmup on 83 aero

Prrs like a kitten when it first startups- for about ten minutes, but once its warmed up it slowly trails off to a stop.

It idles upon startup at about 800.

And no matter if I am adjusting the throttle stop screw nor the air screw, have made a difference. All the way in, or all he way out. Really ...

Noisy (I mean NOISY) speedo cable.. 1983 Honda Aero

So my original cable was just replaced as it was severed in the bend up the fork.
The new one arrived (nos) sheath, cable, caps- everything checked out fine.
My gear drives on the front wheel are clean and fine and the cable seems to operate fine also. When I installed it I sprayed and lubricated ...

Wheelman at it again!

I was actually reading your posts on the honda met swap. So just the back swap in the same?

Would I then need any modifications or machining for the wheel to bolt on or is it pretty straightforward?

FIXED!

Sadly the problem was so anticlimactic, Im embarrassed. It turns out that the throttle valve was 180 degrees opposite its correct position, It wouldnt fit earlier, so I assumed I had it correct with the slit facing me. But I was wrong, I went back out to check the throttle screw, and tried it the ...

I have thought pretty much all of these too, hmm.

Well:
1) It appears to be connected correctly, as pictured in the service manual. slides in easily on the groove with spring around the throttle cable
2) Possibly, but it retracts and returns the same as it always has, no kinks, apparent snags, or ...
