to rise suddenly when you turn the handlebars. This
can lead to loss of rider control.
Adjust the throttle cable play so that engine speed
does not rise due to handlebars movement.
WARNING
Improper throttle cable adjustment can lead to loss of
rider control.
After the adjustment is completed, check that handle-
bars movement does not raise the engine idle speed
and that the throttle grip returns smoothly and auto-
matically.
