^^ This looks a little too tight if this is at no throttle. You don't want to take all the slack out of it.

 

Cool, I need to check mine out this weekend!

 

yah i tighten it all the way to the front.. is that too much?

do you guys tighten them while you push the throttle down? or leave it normal?

 

there needs to be 1/4" slack when its at zero throttle. Take your finger and pull on the cable...there should be 1/4" travel before it starts pulling on the throttle. Otherwise, you'll put unnecessary stress on the cable when you are WOT.

 

sweet - just did my DBW and it didn't make a difference...

 

I finally got a chance to try this! I think it made a pretty big difference, thanks OP for making this post & Vic for posting in the Vancouver section.

 

Even with a lot of slack, my throttle still opened fully to the stop. I adjusted the slack to 1/4 inch per the manual.

 

did mine, it was not that bad anyway! No differene what so ever..

 

The manual asks for some SLAC. I figure if its 100% open at WOT it is all good.
