[QUOTE="DaveFJR, post: 393877, member: 8769"] I have not yet done the spring mod on my bike but probably will during TBS. My opinion on a loose return spring is it may not be as safe but will sure be more comfortable. One of my previous rides was a K100RT. That BMW had an adjustible throttle cable tension spring on the grip assembly. I kept it set so loose that it would take a second or two to return to idle (no cramped throttle hand ever and didn't make it harder to turn on gas, unlike a friction lock. ) [/QUOTE]
