Maintenance and Adjustment
If there is an incorrect amount of free play, Triumph recommends that you have adjustments
made by your authorized Triumph dealer. However, in an emergency, throttle adjustment may
be made as follows:
1. Opening cable adjuster
2. Closing cable adjuster
3. Closing cable – free play
measurement point
4. Opening cable – free play
measurement point
Remove the seat (see page 53).
Release the three fasteners and remove the
front panel from the fuel tank.
1. Front panel
2. Fasteners
Disconnect the battery, negative (black) lead
first.
Remove the fuel tank.
Loosen the locknuts on the 'opening' cable
adjusters.
Rotate the 'opening' cable adjuster at the
twist grip end such that it has an equal
amount of adjustment in each direction.
Rotate the 'opening' cable adjuster at the
throttle body end of the cable to give
0.08 - 0.12 in (2 - 3 mm) of play at the twist
grip. Tighten the locknut to 22 lbf in
(2.5 Nm).
Make any minor adjustments as necessary to
give 0.08 - 0.12 in (2 - 3 mm) of play using
the adjuster near the twist grip end of the
cable. Tighten the locknut.
With the throttle fully closed, ensure that
there is 0.08 - 0.12 in (2 - 3 mm) of free play
in the 'closing' cable at the throttle cam
attached to the throttle bodies. If necessary,
adjust at the throttle body end in the same
way as the 'opening' cable, until
0.08 - 0.12 in (2 - 3 mm) of play is present.
