I have a 2001 FZS600 Fazer which has a sensitive throttle. Twice now I have done impromptu wheelies. I have checked the throttle adjustment and that's fine, just a midges play before it starts to rev. I wonder if the throttle springs are stretched ? It's putting me off riding it out of junctions etc. Any tips or help ?

All the comments made by BBrown are very relevantHowever if the bike is still on the standard rear shock turn the preload up full, if set to the lowest setting the rear sags to much and can cause the issue you describe.

Has it got a 1/4 turn throttle fitted?
