Throttle Lever Free Play Inspection
- Check that the throttle lever moves smoothly from full open to close, and the throttle closes quickly and completely in all steering positions by the return spring.
- If the throttle lever does not return properly, check the throttle cable routing, lever free play, and for possible 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 does not change.
- If the idle speed increases, check the throttle lever free play and the cable routing.
- Stop the engine and check the throttle lever free play [A].
- If the free play is not within the specified range, adjust the cable.
