you might also have an inline adjuster follow the cable and look for somthing you can put a couple of wrenches on. loosen them and twist it open until you take up most not all of the slack in the lever than retighten the nuts.

id go with adjusting it first, just do what i said in the first page, it costs $0

checking for kinks is free...
so is the in line adjuster

wow, that fixed the slack issue, which probably fixed the issue having to pull it in very far, which probably fixed the too hard to pull in thing. Thanks alot, its too dark to start it up now, so ill see how it is tomorrow. I miss the most simplest things but only with dirtbikes. Ill check for kinks tomorrow also

just remember, you want about 1/8 play in it

wr250f95 · 04-13-2008, 07:17 PM

its got too much slack in it, tighten up the cable at the location closest to the motor.

WR, you were late. So was I though.

JThompson · 04-13-2008, 08:17 PM

Always great to see a problem get fixed before Tig or WR gets there
