Throttle tube and maybe cable replacement

My right controls felt fine, but I was curious and kind of peeled back the inner side of the grip to see what the throttle tube looked like. I replaced it, but now the throttle feels like its binding; it does not return smoothly. Does that sound plausible or did I maybe do something else in the process?

Regardless, I ordered new rizoma sport grips which include the throttle tube as part of the grip, so I intend to replace the throttle tube. The bike is very old and was neglected for 10+ years. I can see some fraying in the clutch cable so it seems prudent to also replace the throttle/idle cables.

Will this require a TPS reset?

More specifically, if I just replace the throttle tube, do I need to do a TPS reset?
If I replace the throttle tube and both cables do I need to do a TPS reset?

There is a long history of posts related to TPS resets. Is the latest and greatest way to do this using buelltooth?

Thanks
