1977 Suzuki TS185 throttle sticks

I have a 1977 Suzuki TS185 and the throttle sticks; the physical throttle does not stick, I just get really high RPM even if I can move the throttle back and forth. The carb is super clean, the throttle cable is lubed, and I cleaned up under the actual throttle handle. I've checked the jet and it is clear.
Any help would be super!
Thanks, Robin :)

Could be 2 things to look at first.1 the idle adjusting screw has been screwed in to far and is holding the throttle slide open.The other is an air leak between the carby and the motor resulting in the air/fuel mixture being to lean.This would cause the revs of the engine to be to high.Check these 2 things.Hope this helps

My 1.0l 96 suzuki swift auto is reving high in neutral and park (about 3k rpm). In drive it is ticking over at about 2k in traffic which means im driving everywhere with my brake lights on!! It only...

sounds to me like something is definitly sticking, with the engine off, try lubrication the throttle controls, ensure that the electrical fittings are secure on the throttle body, this may also be a choke problem, best to get it looked at really, hard to say on here, good luck, be safe.
