It's not really a nut -- it's round but functions as a jam nut. I believe the top cable is the one you need to adjust. After you get the slack out crank the bike in neutral and turn the bars from lock to lock -- you want the idle to remain constant. If it starts revving higher at any point then you'll need a bit more slack. Most models recommend 2mm of play at the grip. _____________________________ It's better to burn out ... Than high side!
