Just had Kuryakin ISO grips installed yesterday on my 08' RG. Normally would put them on myself but they offered to put them on for free. Noticed today that the throttle does not return by itself. Anybody got any suggestions? T.

 

Make sure the rib is not binding in the switch housing.

 

Another possibility is the throttle cables are&nbsp\\;not adjusted correctly after they put on your new grips.&nbsp\\;
&nbsp\\;
In case your interested, I put on the ISO grips last year.&nbsp\\; I really like the look and how they feel.

Put em on mine and love em... and btw, what Dawg said.

 

When I did mine had the same problem. Loosen up the control and move the grip out just&nbsp\\; a tiny bit worked for mine it was bottoming out on the bars hopes this helps.

 

just a thought...Check to be sure yer "star" thumbscrew is out enough.....they coulda' used it to hold the grip from moving...

 

yup,
throttle friction stop not installed correctly or already "set"
&nbsp\\;
i had to sand off so rough edges where the cables aligned and had to be careful about the cable housing.took an extra hr to get all the binding out
&nbsp\\;
good grips though

 

All the above, plus...
&nbsp\\;
Someone mentioned in an earlier thread to lube the handlebar under the throttle sleave. I've never had to do that but - it makes sense.

 

Thanks for the info the ISO grips are my next addon.

 

This morning I loosend the housing and slid the whole thing about 1/16 inch out. Fixed the problem. I think when the guy installed it he pushed everything all the way too far in and then tightened up the housing. The grip must have been putting to much pressure against that sensor that is in the end of the handlebar. T.
