Are you talking about 'lateral' or end to end play in the throttle grip/housing? If so, that's normal. If you're talking about the grip/cable housing being loose on the bars, that's not normal.
:thumbup:Ok, I know about the grip end play part of it from my dirtbike experience. The part Im talking about looks more like a cover. I just havent had a chance to take it apart to see. Plannin' on doing that today.
