Throtle after grip change

[Seanie]

Hi,
Hope you can help me.....

I noticed when riding my bike since i changed over my bars and grips last Friday that when i reach around 4k revs in 5th gear or even if i rev hard in lower gears the throttle seems to slip a bit, making the reving type sound but not gaining speed if you get me. If i use it nice and handy it gains speed ok.

Everything seems to be on right, and i put grease on the new bar under the throttle tube/grip.
I think it just needs a throttle cable adjustment but my manual isnt much help, so im not sure which way i sould be doing it.

All was perfect before i went at the bars, so i know it must be something simple...
Any ideas?

Hi,

Your clutch cable may be too tight causing the clutch to slip. Try adjusting the clutch cable.


Thank you for your indulgence,

Im going with Cliff on this one, as well.

Check the cable routing and adjustments for the clutch.

Right again lads!

Adjusted my clutch cable this morning, and went for a nice hour long local spin. Perfect!

Thanks!
