Did any of you need to adjust the throttle cable down by the carbs?

I used a PVC slice because I was lazy to go out and had time to spare. Will probably go get some zipties to compare thickness but I didn't add more than 2mm to the stock tube and I found it incredibly tight and initially, some binding as well. Once I loosened the cable, it was snug but the binding disappeared.

So far, took it for a quick spin but I can't really tell the difference. I may have shaved off so much that it became less than 1 zip-tie thickness but I can't imagine getting anything thicker on there without it getting caught on something.
