MAINTENANCE
Throttle
Adjust Throttle Freeplay
1. Hold the adjuster nuts (1) and loosen the lock nuts (2) on both
cables.
2. Turn the lock nuts away from the adjuster nuts as far as possible
on both cables.
3. Turn both adjuster nuts toward the lock nuts as far as possible for
maximum freeplay in both cables.
4. Turn the adjuster on the throttle opening (front) cable away
from the lock nut until throttle freeplay is 2-4 mm.
5. To adjust the closing cable (the one toward rear of
motorcycle), move the throttle grip back and forth constantly
and turn adjuster out slowly just until freeplay is removed.
Turn the adjuster back in one full turn.
6. Turn lock nuts on both cables until seated against adjuster nuts. Hold adjuster nut and tighten lock nut
securely (both cables).
7. Check throttle control grip as described on page 103.
8. Start engine with transmission in neutral. Turn handlebars full left to full right. Idle RPM should not change
when bars are turned. RPM changes can be caused by a damaged cable, incorrect routing, or incorrect
adjustment.
