To tighten the handlebars on a Suzuki VL1500, follow these general steps:
1. Remove the existing handlebar end caps if installed. 2. Insert the new handlebar end caps into the handlebar ends. 3. Tighten the threads on the bar ends until the internal mechanism expands and holds the bar ends tightly in place.
If you're adjusting throttle cables:
1. Hold the throttle grip fully closed. 2. Adjust the throttle returning cable until resistance is felt. 3. Tighten the lock-nut while holding the adjuster. 4. Ensure throttle grip returns smoothly and does not raise idle speed when moving the handlebars.
These steps help ensure the handlebar and throttle system are secure and function correctly.
