Anyone have throttle cable and/or kill switch grounding out issues before?

I've got a brand new throttle cable, brand new motor on a super bigfoot. Broke in the motor, everything was perfect no issues. Went on first ride just limping it around the block a few times. Tune was perfect it seemed so I went home.

Next day I pulled it out again, went for a short limp around the block and made it a block then it seamed the tune fell off a cliff and I couldn't find the right tune to recover. So I went home and messed with the tune for a hour. Just couldn't get the motor to run out. Hitting the throttle would instantly kill the motor.

Then I tried the butterfly valve on the carb and the motor would rev out just fine. So it's the throttle cable or kill switch. I ended up pulling the fan cover off and on 10 times before I said fuck it and totally removed the handlebar kill switch.

So it now runs and rides with use of the throttle like normal. The engine mounted kill switch still works but no handlebar Killswitch.

What did I do wrong or should I just sell it and get another gsr? I do spy a nice few gems on the ole ebays..

Finally got around to installing my sikk pipe on the ole super bigfoot. I also started doordashing on the biggy today too. Who's hungry?

Make sure to check up on all your favorite 4 legged friends with the bad air quality. I checked up on our old friend on sunday. He sure was hungry I think someone forgot to feed him..

Went on a nice friday evening ride on my super bigfoot and stopped to get a picture with the sunset!

Feeling nostalgic about my first goped after finding old pictures.
