• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

throttle getting stuck

I just noticed that with the bike idling, with the handlebars toward the extreme left, when I blip the throttle it seems to get stuck and the idle stays up. When it does this and I move the bars toward centerline, the idle goes down. Can someone tell me which cable I need to follow from the throttle on the handle bar?

This doesn't happen with the handle bars straight or to the right. I do have 4" risers and may need more slack.

I just checked the service manual. It may be that I need to adjust the throttle return. Does anyone know which way to turn the adjuster to take up the slack?

Scotty,

If you read this, I also pm'ed you something.

Thanks

You most likely have a zip tie stilled on the throttle cable. Most of the time when installing rises you have to cut the zip ties to give the cables the slack it need to turn left. This is common. If all zip ties are cut. Re- rout the throttle cable. The 2 cables you need to follow go from the throttle across in between the handle bars and gages down to the left side and make a 180* turn into the throttle body.
