dcalsv02 Posted April 13, 2011 Report Posted April 13, 2011 I just put on a single 35mm pwk and after I had it installed and tested the throttle (twist). When I twist the throttle I can feel the slide return spring through the grip. The spring feels like it is hanging up slightly or the carb body or something is rubbing against the coils of the spring when I open the throttle. Has anyone encountered this problem? Is it in fact a problem or something i need to get used to? The throttle doesnt stick at all, it just doesnt feel buttery smooth like the stock carbs did. I only notice it when the bike is off, however im not sure if it is an issue I need to worry about. thanks for the help guys. Quote

dcalsv02 Posted April 15, 2011 Author Report Posted April 15, 2011 (edited) I will check that out. So obviously new spring if the coils are sharp, but what is the remedy if the cable guide is sticking out past the carb top? Edited April 15, 2011 by dcalsv02 Quote
