   Hi all just got a furio and i cant give it full throttle the pedal hits the floor before i can, its as if my cable has stretched. Anyone heard of this happening or is something else going on? Cheers all

   check the adjustment on the manifold, there is a metal clip on the cable just give the cable a tug to see if there is any slack, if there is adjust the cable to suit
