My throttle has a little sticky release (I perfer a quick smooth spring back). Aside from WD 40, is there anything all y'all can recommend to lube the cable?

BMW cables are not meant to be lubricated. It can actually make it worse. I believe they have an internal lining of a Teflon-type material - others may know exactly.
I would look for binding somewhere along its routing or even withing the grip. Otherwise, a replacement may be in order.
True.
I am going to make an assumption. The K bikes' throttle tube is geared and I'll guess your R bike is too. The gear does need greasing, at least my old K100LT's did.
