THROTTLE
THROTTLE INSPECTION
Check the throttle grip play in accordance with the periodic
maintenance schedule and adjust if necessary.
The throttle grip controls the throttle valve in the carburetor. If the
throttle grip has excessive play due to cable stretch or improper
adjustment, it may cause throttle delay or prevent the throttle from
opening completely. The result will have an adverse effect on handling.
Conversely, if the throttle does not have enough play, the throttle will
be hard to control and the idle speed may be erratic.There should be
between 2mm and 3mmof throttle play when the grip is lightly
turned back and forth.
WARNING: An incorrectly or improperly adjusted throttle may
lead to loss of motorcycle control and an accident.
