The throttle grip must return promptly to the resting position once released, having only a little play. Adjust it by placing spacers near the throttle control (see video).

The clutch should have a medium amount of play; if it has none, it will remain engaged, while too much play will cause dragging with the gear engaged during stops. This is also adjusted with a spacer near the lever.

The gear and brake levers should be positioned to allow your foot to rest when not in use. For the gear lever, adjust the setting between the lever and the pump; for the brake lever, a screwdriver or a slotted profile will be needed.
