Throttle cable adjustment?
«

I have some play in my throttle and I've searched and found no mention of how to adjust it, if possible. I see the adjuster for the "choke", but can't locate one for the throttle cable. maybe I should follow " if it works, don't fix it"?

My 91 has a boot on the cable where it exits the throttle housing. Under that boot is an adjuster.

There is also another adjuster at the throttle body end of the cable.

Mine doesn't have a cable adjuster on the throttle body end, just a throttle body idle adjustment screw that I think we're not supposed to adjust.
The cable should be adjusted up at the handlebar end.

Where can I find an adjuster? The bike I just bought was using a Bilwell throttle and had removed the stock levers. I put them back on but I'm missing this adjustment option.

All of the cables I'm seeing for sale on different sites don't have the adjuster. That and not seeing it on realoem led me to believe that it's a separate part or maybe the updated version of the cable but I'm not sure.
