First make sure it's not adjusted too tight, there needs to be a little slack in the throttle cable for just this reason, adjust the cables so that the twistgrip can be turned about 2-3mm before the engine note changes at all, and ensure that the bars can turned from lock to lock without the tickover being affected.
There are two cables, the opening cable is the front one on the twistgrip housing, this is the one that may be lacking enough slack.
