Help with Yamaha 701 throttle issue after carb rebuild-----FIXED----Thanks

Hey-
So, I found a low hour 2019 SJ motor package on eBay a couple months ago and finally got around to installing it today in a Rickter. Before I installed it I rejetted it for a b pipe and head. Once installed I fired it up and it idled near perfectly. What is odd though is the fact that when the throttle is opened---nothing happens. It just continues to idle. Yes, the cable is hooked up and you can see the linkage and all functioning as it should. It is pretty strange.
Any ideas?
Thanks
 
No, I think I did something that only an idiot could do.
I haven’t verified it yet but I’m pretty sure that I crossed the throttle and choke cables.
On the bright side, I get to go riding today.
 
It’s embarrassing and kind of funny. As I described the problem, it makes no sense and I think my brain was working on the problem while I was sleeping because when I woke up this AM the answer bonked me in the head. I guess I won’t quit my day job, as they say.
 
This is usually where a bunch of people that paid zero attention to the actual problem start telling you that you need to change your oil ratio of plug heat range or your low speed screw is off by /4 turn
