Maintenance and Adjustment
To adjust the cable free play, slide the rubber
boot to allow access to the adjuster.
Release the lock nut on the 'opening' cable
adjuster.
Rotate the 'opening' cable adjuster at the
twist
grip
end
to
give
(2 - 3 mm) of play at the twist grip. Tighten
the lock nut to 22.5 lbf-in (2.5 Nm).
Refit the rubber cover.
Warning
Ensure that the adjuster lock nuts are
tightened, as a loose lock nut could result
in a sticking throttle.
An incorrectly adjusted, sticking or stuck
throttle can lead to loss of motorcycle
control and an accident.
Check that the throttle opens smoothly,
without undue force and that it closes without
sticking.
Ride carefully to your nearest authorized
Triumph dealer and have them check the
throttle system thoroughly before riding
again.

cable-operated clutch.
If the clutch lever has excessive free play, the
clutch may not disengage fully. This will cause
difficulty in shifting gear and selecting
neutral. This may cause the engine to stall
and make the motorcycle difficult to control.
Conversely, if the clutch lever has insufficient
free play the clutch may not engage fully,
causing the clutch to slip, which will reduce
performance and cause premature clutch
wear.
Clutch lever free play must be checked in
accordance with scheduled maintenance
requirements.
