- Loosen the lock-nut (2) of the throttle pulling cable.
- Turn the adjuster (3) in or out until the throttle cable play “a” (at the throttle grip) is within 2 – 4 mm (0.08 – 0.16 In).
- Tighten the lock-nut (2) while holding the adjuster (3).
- Fit the boot (1) positively onto the adjuster.
 After the
