I have a 09 dragon being cranky! Rode the mountains all weekend and all was good, got home put on a new can and bar riser , went to fire it up and it was flooded had to unplug fuel pump to burn off excess gas the plugged it back in and it ran. Now if i try starting it I have to give if full throttle for it to fire! Anyone seen this before or ideas ?

throttle cable to loose? causing lever to not contact the throttle safety switch at idle

Not sure where/what the safety switch is , seemed fine until i made those changes, if anything ud think it would be tighter after adding a riser block

push and hold the throttle lever to the fully closed position and have some one try and start the sled if it starts the throttle cable is to loose
