Throttle Lever; Speed Limiters - Yamaha YFM90RY Owner's Manual

Throttle lever

Once the engine is running, movement of the throt-
tle lever will increase the engine speed.
Regulate the speed of the ATV by varying the
throttle position. Because the throttle is spring-
loaded, the ATV will decelerate, and the engine will
return to an idle any time the hand is removed from
the throttle lever.

Before starting the engine, check the throttle to be
sure it is operating smoothly. Make sure it returns
to the idle position as soon as the lever is released.
WARNING
Malfunction of the throttle could make it diffi-
cult to speed up or slow down when you need
to. This could cause an accident. Check the op-
eration of the throttle lever before you start the
engine. If the throttle does not work smoothly,
check for the cause. Correct the problem be-
fore riding the ATV or consult a Yamaha dealer.

Speed limiters

Your ATV was delivered with two speed limiter
devices. A vehicle speed limiter adjusting screw
and a removable engine speed limiter plate.
Yamaha recommends that all beginning riders start
off with the vehicle speed limiter adjusting screw fully
turned in and the engine speed limiter plate installed
to limit the amount of speed available while they learn.
