I cleaned my carb inside an out an i put it all back together an now my throttle lever is loose. u can use ur pinky finger with no pressure really to push in any idea y???? havent rechecked it yet
 
maybe just needs tightend. or you could have it on backwards one of the members on this forum had this problem a little bit earlier today turned out he had the cable on backwards. hope this helps
 
thanks ill try it an if it works i will rip it all ova the roads because its snowwwiiiinnnggg baaadd suppose to get 12-15" of snow :) big smile
 
the problem was that the cylinder on the needle wasnt down far enough on the carb which caused the throttle to be loose and now its perfect
