I had an issue where the throttle cable came loose from the pedal cluster and after I screwed it back in, it seems like it doesn't "snap back" like it used to. It idles okay, doesn't seem like its pulling when I'm not giving it gas, but just feels off. Especially when I'm blipping it to downshift. Not as crisp. Any ideas?

 

When mine does that I loosen the throttle lock.

 

Check the tension on both throttle cables. If both aren't adjusted properly it'll act funny... Well, not Ha-Ha funny, but you know what I mean!

When you adjust the cables you need to start with both backed off and the throttle lock is properly installed and backed off. Then adjust the throttle until you have full thottle. Then start adjusting the slack cable until most of the freeplay is out. Now try the throttle. and see if it sticks. If it does then back off on the idle cable until it no longer sticks then go a little more. Make sure that you have the cables well lubed and are not restricted or crimped. Make sure the fuel is shut off and put a rag over the accelerator pump nozzle so that you don't flood the engine. Hope this helps

 

In addition to what Mia says make sure you rotate the handle bars lock to lock when adjusting to make sure throttle cables work correctly in all positions.

 

Okay. Great ideas - thank you everyone.
Now, my bad: I meant to post this on another site: the problem is with my 911, not my Harley. At least I know now how to fix this problem on my bike it it shows up ;-)

 

We can fix anything in here.....

 

Glad you cleared that up. I couldn't figure out what kind of bike you were talking about that had a throttle pedal.

 

Haven`t you heard of a Suicide Throttle?
