Yeah you should have some freeplay within your throttle cable, as long as its not hella much. You can always tighten it up to your liking

You should have 1/16" to 3/16" freeplay. You need to adjust the nuts on the top tube your throtle cable runs through. One looks normal and the other is long. Loosen these two nuts and movethe long onearound till it is were you want it then tighten the little nut down to lock it.
