Throttle Cable

Check that the throttle lever moves smoothly from full
open to close, and the throttle closes quickly and com-
pletely in all steering positions by return spring.
If the throttle lever does not return properly, check the
throttle routing, cable adjustments, and 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 cable ad-
justment and the cable routing.
