    Throttle

    Where your throttle cable goes into the lower half of the twist grip housing there is a "J"shaped chrome piece, the cable goes thru this chrome piece. Next to this "J" piece is a small screw, does that small screw have a piece of metal under it to hold the chrome piece in place or what? Should have taken notice of other bikes at rallies to see whats supposed to be there........seems like there should be something there as this chrome piece seems to "flop" out of place when you back off the throttle.....someone shed some light here please.

    Thanx in advance Xmen!
