slow throttle

[jwhelan65]

The throttle on my Gs 700 returns very slow after you open it up..Assuming its the cable?

The cable returns slow? or the revs return slow?

I have not started the bike yet, if I twist the throttle it returns very slow..so the cable.

Check that you didnt pinch the cable when installing the tank. Happens pretty often actually. If thats not it, I assume you cleaned the carbs already? Either way, you might check to see that the butterflies arent sticking. One nice thing about the CV carbs is that they started coating (or polishing maybe?) the bores and throats. The VMs were bad for leaving a zinc film on the walls of the bores, causing the slides to stick..

Check the grips. I installed foam grips and had to trim them or they would bind on the bar end giving me a slow return.
