Is there a way to measure the left-hand throttle plate angle on a 2010 V7 Cafe to ensure the sacred screw has not been tampered with?
I purchased my bike second-hand and there were numerous modifications made at the expense of the original owner, hence my wanting to check throttle plate angle. I've read that some MGs should have a throttle plate angle of 4.5 to 4.9 degrees. I'm not sure if this specification applies to a 2010 V7 Cafe and if not, what it the correct angle? Also, I'm wondering if a template could be made from, say, thin cardboard or aluminum sheet and simply inserted into the throttle body to check the throttle plate angle? Or is there a way that it can be checked electronically?
Thanks!
