★ If the free play is incorrect, adjust the throttle cable.
Throttle grip free play:
- Standard: 2-3 mm (0.08-0.12 in.)
Check that the throttle grip moves smoothly from close to full open, and the throttle closes quickly and completely in all steering positions by the return spring.
★ If the throttle grip doesn't return properly, check the throttle cable routing, grip free play, and cable damage. Then lubricate the throttle cable.
Run the engine at the idle speed, and turn the handlebar all the way to the right and left to ensure that the idle speed doesn't change.
★ If the idle speed increases, check the throttle grip free play and the cable routing.
If necessary, adjust the throttle cable as follows:
Loosen the locknuts [A] and screw the adjusters [B] all the way in so as to give the throttle grip plenty of play.
Turn out the adjuster of the decelerator cable [D] until there is no play.
Tighten the locknut against the adjuster.
Turn the adjuster of the accelerator cable [C] until the proper amount of throttle grip free play is obtained and tighten the locknut against the adjuster.
