Fuel System/Engine Management
Throttle Cables
The throttle grip controls the throttle valves the
throttle bodies. If the throttle cables are incorrectly
adjusted, either too tight or too loose, the throttle may
be difficult to control and performance will be adversely
affected.
Check the throttle grip free-play in accordance with
scheduled maintenance requirements and make
adjustments as necessary.
Always be alert for changes in the 'feel' of the throttle
and have the throttle system checked by an authorised
Triumph dealer if any changes are detected. Changes
can be due to wear in the mechanism, which could lead
to a sticking throttle.
An incorrectly adjusted, sticking or stuck throttle will lead
to loss of motorcycle control and an accident.
