Hey gang, question for you. After installing the ( clear ) Triumph fly screen on my scrambler and routing everything as per instructions I experienced throttle movement when turning the bars hard right. Shame on me but I didn't find out until I was leaving a gravel parking lot turning, you guessed it, right. No oops but plenty of drama.
I'm sure I did it wrong but i tried adjusting the ferrule under the rubber cover( by the grip ) by turning the ferrule and threads apart lengthening the assembly but that made the throttle go up turing the bars to the right with the fly screen removed and everything back to stock ( in other words, it made the problem worse) so I set it back and figured I'd leave well enough alone for the time being. I was unable to tighten the ferrule assembly making it shorter.
It seems that the location of the flyscreen mount puts just enough pressure on the throttle cable(s) to raise the engine speed by 1,000 - 2,000 rpm ...not fun. What needs to be adjusted, throttle free play? If so, where is that accomplished and how do I do that. :???:
Thanks!
Rich
