The B4 only has one throttle cable,.. erm,.. that's a pull, I think?  There's a spring set up on the other end ( carb end) that offers the resistance to pull it back.

Alright, I hit a number of the shops regularly, and talk to a number of people, so if I hear of anything, I'll let you know.

You -do- know that you can get into a hell of a lot of trouble with a gsf400 eh?  Most people I've talked to say they're faster than a gs500, by a lot.

K,.. what would tell me if the inner is worn?  For the record, she behaved perfectly last night, no free revving at all, I'm a little suspicious though, so I'll take her for a boot, she usually acts up for me, even if she doesn't for the other half.

We have a cable greasing thingy,.. I don't do it, the other half does, it seems to take care of all of our cables fairly well.  These ones hadn't been gotten to yet though, as we're working on Dita as things arise.

I use Canon gear, and I also have a Bronica that I use.  That said, if I go digital at any point ( besides my little point and shoot) I'm likely going to go with the D80 from Nikon.  What I'm really waiting for though is for full frame sensors to become the norm, and get lower in price, so I can pick one of those up and not lose the functionality of my wide glass.

Erm,.. why?

That would mow my lawn in 2 seconds flat.... slight damage to the side of the house is likely though...

I'm not sure if that speaks more to the power of the lawnmower or the size of my "plot" though.
