THROTTLE RELEASE SWITCH (TRS)
/THROTTLE CABLE ADJUSTMENT
NOTE
ONLY Mechanical throttle body vehicles are equipped
with a TRS Switch and throttle cable.
ETC vehicles are not equipped with these components.
1. Turn the ignition key to the “OFF” position.
2. Slide the boot back far enough to expose the in-line
cable adjuster sleeve and loosen the adjuster
locknut.
3. Remove the (4) screws and cover from the RH
control.
4. With handlebars centered and wheels pointing
forward, slowly turn the adjuster sleeve counter-
clockwise (out) just until the gap is removed between
the throttle arm and the throttle arm stop (see
illustration below).
NOTE
While moving the adjuster sleeve, “flip” the throttle lever
slightly to set the neutral position of the cable.
5. Turn the cable adjuster sleeve clockwise (in) 1.5 - 2
turns; tighten locknut and reinstall boot. After this
adjustment there should be .079-.118” (2-3 mm) gap
between throttle arm and throttle arm stop.
6. Reinstall the RH control cover and ensure the O-ring
is properly in place. Securely tighten the (4) screws.
7. Place the vehicle in Park and start the engine. Turn
the handlebars from full left to full right while listening
for any change in engine speed. If engine speed
changes, loosen the locknut and turn the adjuster
sleeve clockwise (in) an additional 1/2 turn and
repeat this step.
AIR FILTER / PRE-FILTER SERVICE
It is advisable to replace the filter when it is dirty.
However, in an emergency, it is permissible to clean the
main filter if you observe the following practices.
Never immerse the filter in water since dirt can be
transferred to the clean air side of the filter.
If compressed air is used never exceed a pressure of
40 PSI. Always use a dispersion type nozzle to prevent
filter damage and clean from the inside to the outside.
It is recommended that the air filter and pre filter be
replaced annually. When riding in extremely dusty
conditions, replacement is required more often.
Removal:
1. Remove the seat to access the airbox cover.
