 Re: how often
its common on the mikuni's, just spray them with some WD-40 after every other use, i've found that that works better. I'm on my second cable, put carb on at 45 hours, had to get another cable at 150 hours.

 Re: how often
Over 100 hours on mine, no problems.

 Re: how often
Lost mine on the water last month at around 100 hours. That parachute cord sure came in handy.

 Re: how often
Check the way its routed (aligned) and as posted above how its lubricated. You should get more than 15 hours out of one- there is something specific to your setup.
