Check Throttle Control Grip and Cables
1. Rotate the throttle control grip. It should rotate smoothly
from its rest position to its completely open position and
back again. It should return to its rest position quickly
when released.
2. Throttle freeplay -- the amount of throttle control grip
movement from the rest position to the point of cable
resistance -- should be 1/8--1/4 inch (3--6 mm).
3. Adjust throttle cable freeplay if necessary (see page 89).
Check Clutch
1. Squeeze the clutch lever toward the handlebar and release
it. It should move freely and smoothly and should return to
its rest position quickly when released.
2. Clutch freeplay -- the amount of clutch lever movement
from the rest position to the point of cable resistance --
should be between 0.04--0.08 inch (1--2 mm). Measure the
thickness of the gap between the clutch lever and the lever
housing.
