ive been on many long trips since i got my 3 wheeler workin (ytm175) and it now seems to have lost its power. I mean it used to pop a wheelie when i was sitting right up at the handlebars, how i have to jerk it back while giving gas. I put a new throttle cable on and it seems the only way to adjust idle it to tighten or loosen the cable, the idle screw does nothing. Could the throttle cable be to tight or something? I also adjusted the clutch and played with the jetting with no luck.
Thanks, Jake.

Do a compression check. One way to check your throttle cable is to turn the handle bars all the way right/left while its running and see if your idle changes. Are you running the stock pipe/muffler? It might be starting to get plugged up. Stock jets? Clean air filter?

Around 110 to run at all, 140 to 150 should be about normal. 170+ if you're running a hi-comp head, etc.
