throttle not smooth

[rubber toe]

Hi, probably should be posting this in Workshop already posted a couple of different things in there but nobody is browsing that forum at present so I'm going to try here, my throttle seems a little "grindy" not much but not as smooth as I think it should be, how do I make it so, oil down the cable or something else ?
also the right side of my handlebars are slightly bent, is it time for a new one or can it be bent back without weakening the whole bar ?
Your help is much appreciated

Yes, You can bend it back, it's steel...
Would I bother.. Possibly not - You'll get used to it anyhow.

Lubing cables - They always need lubing, you can't overlube them... So do it anyway - Although it could be down to the throttle cable fraying within the outer - So worth checking that too.
