[QUOTE="André, post: 742840, member: 20464"] I have read a few threads about that and have removed mine last week. Two places: at the "carb" where the cables turn the vane (under the tank) and at an adjuster on one of cable under a rubber protector sleeve close to your dash. It is recommended you do at the carb. Donno why. Locate where the cables end up under the tank. One of them is fixed but on the other you can loosen the top nut all the way up. Now you can push that assembly down and away from the bracket somewhat and access the bottom nut. Turn that one so that it moves up on its thread thus lenghtening the cable sleeve and removing the slack. You may need to turn a bit, check, turn a bit more etc. Then tighten the top nut back down. Sorry, I'm not very techy about those thingy terms. ... or just do it at the cable like a bicycle cable. Motorcycles should have a bit of play so leave some. AB [/QUOTE]
