Hey guys, finishing up a 57 Sportster restoration and I had a question about the throttle. Its a push style and I mounted the handlebars and throttle along with the carburaetor. I tested it out and realized that when I spin the throttle handle it does not "Spring" back. In other words wherever I put it, it stays in that position. So while riding If I was accelerating and took my hand off of the throttle it would continue to accelerate and not slow down to an idle. My question is if this is normal? I know the later model Bendix Carbs have the spring built into the carb itself. I'm running the stock Linkert DC Carb. Any help is appreciated.
