    Throttle Take up

    When riding my AT l find it very difficult to get a smooth take up when opening the throttle, it seems to snatch as if the chain is slack. Is this normal or do l need to do something to get rid of this?

    Most likely slack chain or carbs out of balance.

    Chain adjustment is fine. Still get the problem but can beat it with careful throttle control. Is this normal?

    Try giving the carbs a good clean out.
