Throttle cable adjustment (TC)
To check the correct adjustment of the throttle cable, operate as follows:
- remove the rubber gaiter (1) at cable end;
- push and pull cable (2) to make sure it has about 2 mm free play;
- if not so, loosen the lock ring nut (3) and suitably turn the adjuster screw (4)
(loosen to decrease play or tighten to increase it);
- tighten back the lock ring nut (3).
Operation with damaged throttle cable could result in an unsafe riding
condition.
Exhaust gas contains poisonous carbon monoxide. Never run the engine
indoors.
When replacing the throttle cables (1) and (2), make sure a 10-mm length of
each cable protrudes over the clip (length A) as shown in the picture. Ret the
protection cover (B) using the screw (3) and adjust the cables at handlebar end.
To replace the cables, you will need to remove the fuel tank as described in the
relevant paragraph.
