Cb500 K0 Heavy throttle return spring

The one thing that annoys on the K0 is the heavy throttle return spring. Is there a fix for this?

Never found this spring too heavy.

JamesH:
Likewise, suspect you may have a non original spring??

                The throttle on you K0 was much lighter than mine as I remember. I have fitted new cables
My K3 in comparison with the Pd carbs Has a return spring thats only a third of the length of the K0 spring.
It's not noticeably heavier than my 2 friends UK K1's
A lighter spring is what I need
Thanks
Andrew

Only reason for heavy throttle is bad cables or bad routing. DO NOT lube the honda cables as they are nylon/rubber lined and the lube will make them swell up and be stiff
