09 xp 850 thottle lever play

[PoLaRiSnUt]

HOw much play should the throttle lever have? with the bike off, i can move the throttle almost a half and inch back and forth without actually engaging the throttle. My dirtbikes and sleds never had that much play and i thought it was strange.

in your owners manual is how to adjust it. i think spec is 3mm but check the book.
