Try replacing the cables with motor cycle throttle cables. They are  
available with teflon coated cables and teflon lined sleeves. If you  
ever had a sticky throttle, clutch, or front brake cable, the  
difference is startling.
  Call around and find a shop that stocks this stuff in bulk. Other  
wise you will have to pay for a lot of worthless end Fittings and  
adjusters.
good luck
Dave
