Hi guys!
Well I was tearing down my quad for more updates and I noticed I was not getting full throttle. I tried adjusting the cable and it still would not go full throttle. Has anyone else had this problem when using a thumb throttle?

Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the pics!

Yeah I posted that carb FS right after I got off the dyno and it made less HP(almost a year ago). But now I see why, not getting full throttle. Then after having carpal tunnel surgery on both hands I kind of gave up on the quad for a while. I guess I never read my signature till after you said something. Im going to do more mods to my quad so I think ill be keeping the carb for now.

Thanks again for all your help!
