Default funky idle problem?!?!?!?

hey guys, im wondering if u could help me out, when my bike (2003 yz250) is simply idling (neutral or in gear) when i turn the handle bars back and fourth or just to one side it seems to pull the throttle cable or something b/c the bike begins to rev up, it will keep going too, i just changed to cable. It used to do it before and after i changed it, it still happens, can someone tell me whats going on or how to fix it?!?!!?

The cable housing is hanging the inner cable up as you turn the bars by pulling on it. Check the cable's routing and clean and lube the inner cable using a cable lube tool and a good cable lube. Try Motion Pro for a set up with both a cable lube tool and their lubricant. Any better on-line parts house will have them.

For some reason all of my YZ 2 strokes needed to have the cables routed just right or I would have the same problem. To solve the problem I always routed them above the tank mount on the frame and zip tied it in place so it wouldn't move around.
