Question:

2 frozen motorcycle parts?

First of all, I have a maybe 1972 honda 350 that probably hasnt run in 22 years, yes 22. Almost everything on the motorcycle is perfect except the throttle and front brake. Both of the pedals/handle, will not move even one centimeter. Would the front brake drum be stuck or would it be the cable stuck. Then the throttle, it will not turn at all and I have no idea how to free that.Thank you for any help here, im truely clueless.

Answer:

First get it somewhere above 32 degrees Fahrenheit . Get WD-40 and spray it down into the throttle cable casing and your brake cable casing. The part that the throttle cable should move on the car could be whats frozen, or both. Brake drum could be stuck also. Everything is a possibility.
Umm push the button in and remove them, if you are not capable of doing that, most shops will only charge .2 hours to change them for you.
sometimes you have to wiggle it and pull you have the right idea. Try to drive to autozone or advanced auto. They will help you.
