[QUOTE="ionbeam, post: 447220, member: 277"] Have you released throttle springs? Do you have a G2? Have you changed grips? Have you recently done a TBS? Have you recently fiddled with the vacuum caps or vacuum tubes around the TBs? How much free play does your throttle grip have? Assuming your throttle springs are in place, no fiddling and you do not have a G2, the reason your engine speed is slow to return to idle is due to sticking or dragging of the throttle cable, throttle grip or throttle tube. The cable could be a routing issue caused by a sharp bend or pinching in the cable. Your throttle grip may have slid inboard (toward the key) and is dragging on the switch housing. The FSM specs the throttle cable free play, measured by the amount of free rotation of the throttle grip as 0.12" to 0.20" max. There should be [I]some[/I] free play in the cable. Well, these are a few ideas. [/QUOTE]
