Post Throttle Cable
I have a decent amount of play in the thumb throttle on my gtr 35, guessing 3/4". Where the cable comes into the throttle lever I can see the tab they use to keep the cable intact but I am not able to get anything on to it and pull to see if I can simply slide clamp down and tighten it. Anyone have experience with this?

Thanks

Check the end on the carb and see about adjustment on that end to take up the slack.

I followed it up but didn't see any kind of adjustment

K. It's been 3 years since I've fooled with a stock carb. Someone else will have to chime in

Think i got it. There was an adjustment screw on the linkage where the cable connected behind the air filter housing. I did leave about 1/3" slack

Thanks
