I have an 04’ AR210 and one of the throttle cables has some slack in it which the throttle levers to not be in sync. I see that this can be adjusted but apparently has already been adjusted as much as possible, please see pic. Any other ways to tighten this?

Is there any adjustment that I can make on the throttle lever at the drivers seat?

Check the engine bay for the cables, if your model has it, there's a sensor on each wall with a throttle cable that can be adjusted. Perhaps it has slipped from there?

It's simple, loosen the 10 mm nut on both sides and turn the throttle cable in or out until there is no slack, not tight, just enough to get rid of the slack, then tighten the 10 mm nuts.
