Nomad jumping on slow speed manuvering

Ran into something today that may be of use to other nomad riders.....my bike (05 silver and black) was very jumpy or torguey (sp?) when giving small amounts of throttle on slow speed manuvering. Almost to the point of jerking me back in the seat when when giving it gas.....not enough to notice at speeds when taking offf from light or stop sign.


I found that I had some free play in the throttle before a noticed effect from the bike.

i tightened the return cable via the adjuster at the throttle to take out the free play and the jumpiness went away....I guess I had enough free play so that when I rolled the throttle a small amount I was not able to make small changes.


Maybe this will help someone else.
