Idle Cable Adjustment Question
Hello all,
After putting on new grips, I successfully adjusted the throttle cable per the service manual. As I went to adjust the idle cable to specs, I noticed that the cable support sleeve, the slit where you can see the cable housing touch the spring, was turned to the front of the bike, and I can't see the positioning of the spring. I tried to do it by hand, but could not turn it so that I could see it. Anyone have any ideas on how to make the adjustment?
For the record, the throttle snaps back with the bike turned left, right, and center, but would like visual accuracy as well if possible.
Thanks.
