250r throttle is too stiff with new carb!! help!

[mrusk]

I finally got to hook my throttle cable up to my new 38pwk carb. The throttle is reallllly stiff now.

I heard many roomers on what to do to make the throttle easier. Cut the spring, file the spring, play with the spring, or use the stock carb spring?

What should i do. The throttle is alot stiffer than any other R i have rode.

do not cut the spring, it will make it stiffer, shave the side of the spring, or get a new throttle spring, lube it up, ect

see, heres the best idea, hydro thumb throtttle is a brilliant idea (my idea, pattoned)

are ya sure this makes it stiffer??...have you done it??

Do you have a twist or a thumb throttle? This week end out of the blue my R's twist throttle started to get stiff so I took it apart and cleaned it up really good (it wasn't that dirty) and put it back together, then it worked great. Some times I noticed on the twist throttles it seems to stick and get stiff easy. Hope you get it fixed. :cool:
