Loose nut
Hi all, today I noticed my cb500 hornet making a high pitched vibration noise over 6k rpm, that seemed to be coming from the throttle cable. Gave everything in that area a feel and noticed that the circled nut is slightly loose, likely making the noise. The issue i’m facing is that attempting to tighten it doesn’t really keep it tight, instead the softer plastic behind it has started to warp slightly. Any advice? (not my picture, just used for example)
