and right hand switchgear wiring to the handlebars.
11. Check that the throttle opens and closes smoothly
without sticking. Rectify as necessary.
Operation of the motorcycle with incorrectly adjusted,
incorrectly routed or damaged throttle cables could
interfere with the operation of the brakes, clutch or the
throttle itself. Any of these conditions could result in loss
of control of the motorcycle and an accident.
Move the handlebars to left and right full lock while
checking that cables and harnesses do not bind or that
the steering feels tight or difficult to turn. A cable or
harness that binds, or steering that is tight/difficult to
turn will restrict the steering and may cause loss of
control and an accident.
