Throttle Cable Freeplay
Throttle freeplay is the amount of throttle control grip
movement from the rest position to the point of cable
resistance. Measure this distance. Freeplay should be
2-4 mm. Adjust throttle freeplay as needed.
1. Position the front wheel straight ahead. Stop the
engine.
2. Hold the adjuster nuts securely and loosen the lock
nuts on both cables. Turn the lock nuts away from
the adjuster nuts as far as possible.
3. Turn both adjuster nuts toward the lock nuts as far
as possible for maximum freeplay in both cables.
