Default Re: Topyokes conversion

the slack in the throttle (cables) dictates when the throttle cam is rotated. when you take up the slack by twisting the throttle its at the biting point (no more slack) is when you start to turn the actual throttle cam which then dictates the position of the sensor in relation to the throttle position. if there is too much cable slack then you need to turn the throttle more from throttle stop on the grip/housing before the throttle takes effect. this can cause the rider difficulty in finding the on/off which in turn can cause a snatchy throttle.

to adjust the throttle you need the bars at "full stretch lock" then tighten the pull cable so there is just a tiny little bit of slack so as to not raise the revs going from full lock to full lock. once thats done you can adjust the close cable so that it works in tandem with the pull, e.g. no slack feeling between the two and the throttle snaps back to off when let go.

the TPS only comes into play after the throttle slack is taken up so should not need adjusted after adjusting the cable slack.
