Robert, just one question first: Do you mean 2mm? If so, that would be in the correct range of play. Honda says 2 to 6 mm is normal. If it is 2 cm, that's a little sloppy but it can be adjusted easily. From the right side of the scooter, look over the top of your radiator cap. You'll see a black rubber overflow hose and then just past it and a little to the front you'll see the throttle body plate and cable adjuster. You can get to it without removing any body panels if you have a small enough wrench.

Easy fix.
