Default Throttle

how do you adjust your throttle?? i have adjusted it before by the bolts that sit below it on the throttle wires.. but i tried that and it just gets tighter, lol is there another way to make it smoother?/

Smoother?

You can also adjust it down at the carbs/throttle bodies.

I still don't know what you mean by smoother...Is it sticking or is the engine lurching/surging?

Unless the cable are worn or the throttle tube itself is binding theres not much else to adjust.

Becareful what you try and adjust on a dual cable system, you can very easily dial in unwanted tension between the 2 cables. There should be a 'hair' of slack in both cables.
