Use and maintenance
Adjusting the throttle cable
The throttle cable should have freeplay of 1.5 to 2.0 mm (measured in terms of rotation of the twistgrip) in all steering positions.
If necessary, adjust using the adjusters (1 and 2) located on the steering tube on the left side of the motorcycle.
Adjuster (1) adjusts the throttle opening control, while adjuster (2) adjusts the throttle closing control.
Peel back the sleeves to access the adjusters and slacken the locknuts.
Adjust both adjusters by the same amount: turn clockwise to increase free play, anti-clockwise to decrease free play.
When finished, tighten the locknuts and replace the sleeves.
Periodically check the condition of the outer cables of the throttle opening (1) and closing cables (2). The plastic covering should
show no signs of pinching or cracking.
Lubricate the ends of the inner cables with the prescribed grease periodically to ensure they run freely.
