Throttle Lever - Adjustments

[GRyan]

Soooo... I swapped out my throttle lever for the new 1 finger thrust innovations one. (AWESOME by the way! super comfortable on extended rides)... I do however have a small hiccup. I have the lever adjusted as much as I can to get rid of any play. However there is still a good amount around 5 quarters worth before the throttle really moves.

Where's the next place to look to get this fixed.

You can also adjust the throttle cable where it connects at the carb.

Also if this is the case, you may not be opening the butterflys all the way. I take the flame arrestors off so I can watch the butterflys to ensure they are closing all the way (resting against the throttle stop) and opening all the way.

Exactly, remove throttle drum and install a throttle wheel on your carb if needed to help with adjustment.

Thanks everyone, was able to get it going down at the throttle. I don't know if the cable is to long or what. I had to adjust both the lever and the throttle drum almost to the max. Looks good now.

Your best bet is to do like JetManiac said and install a throttle wheel. They have several holes all the way around the wheel to set your throttle adjustment.
That way you won't have your adjustments set all the way to the max.

Hey JM, is that a pretty basic install. (throttle wheel) Thanks

Yes. Just unscrew one and install the other.

Nope, way to difficult. Thanks though

Are you being serious or are you being facetious? If you are serious I would find someone else to work on your ski.

Pretty sure there was some sarcasm.

Hey man no I'm just joking around. That wheel sounds fantastic for my scenario

I thought you were but couldn't tell. I'm a little grumpy before my coffee in the morning. Lol
