Too loose, too tight. I'm still trying to get mine right.
Stop trying and do it!! Get the specs and set it right.

The grips should be notched to fit in the housing. That could be your problem. After I installed new grips on my 08 Ultra,&nbsp\\;the throttle turned much easier. I think the throttle grip was not installed correct from the factory.
