Racer X Films: How to Service a Dirt Bike Throttle Tube

[@nyashnader1]

Bought a used Fz6. First bike, thought the throttle play was gritty. Cleaned, greased, lubed as per your video. The smoothness and consistent action my throttle has now is one of the most beautiful things I’ve experienced in my life. 🙌🏼

[@Icydragon-oy9jo]

i just bought one and im expereicing horrible throttle problrems

[@Tboss741]

Have a yz450f that had gritty throttle and followed your video step by step now it twist smooth even better than factory. Thanks!

[@darrenkelly9638]

Great job. Your straight forward and professional.

[@gavenatwood8808]

Great Vid. Super helpful. STEP BY STEP 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽

[@Jackson-yj5pb]

What type of grease

[@danielgardzina6982]

most dirtbike shops sell a tub of waterproof grease that is basically a lifetime supply for like $10. you can use it all the time for bolts you don't want to rust up, random things on your dirtbike or car, etc. the brand I have is maxima.

@@danielgardzina6982 thanks

[@caseybrown7530]

When i took my bikes throttle apart a little white thing came out like a plastic white thing what is that

[@komicalkittens2460]

Can I do this even if I have hand guards on my bikr

[@chyerery9584]

Yes just use an allen or whatever bolt is used for the guard.

[@Bigdirtbikeguy]

Be nice to know what year make and model

[@karthikkaty2483]

Ur video got me outa trouble tonight

[@jameshall7627]

Good video man 👍

[@enriqueaguayo4811]

I wouldn’t use grease. That’s what gums up everything anyway. Light oil on tube and lubed cable but no grease on the throttle cam

[@dill5500]

That dry oil stuff

[@dcxplant]

Won't that grease/lube attract dirt and gum up the throttle tube and cable housing?

[@TN_HondaDad]

I did this and it helped but after further troubleshooting the throttle cable was frayed and taped down below the number plate by the previous owner!

[@connersnow298]

Awesome vid and edits and filming and bike and shop

[@drakedeger5657]

Great vid, thanks

[@FirstGendodgegarage]

I use my nans toothbrush to clean the handle

[@chrisbilling]

Im trying to change the grips on mine and just realized the grip and the throttle tube is all one piece. What a great design 🤦‍♂️ gonna have to buy a new throttle tube

[@cruizebitler4968]

Lock on grips. Just took a set off my 450 r and it was not fun now having trouble with the new tube and grips.

[@ELKYO93]

[@roegenrosi-carney7580]

Thanks very helpful

[@chrishitchcock9644]

Only thing wrong with video is namura… had two piston skirts break within an hour. One wiseco, no issue.

[@salsandoval4069]

Throttle cable sticks from carburetor

[@chrisbilling]

Good video tho

[@JoeWayne84]

Such bullshit they use Phillips screws still today like what the fuck give us a hex head or Allen key Philips or one time use fasteners they strip and cause a headache eventually

[@decentdiversions]

Odds are it isn’t actually Philips but JIS. Looks like Phillips but not the same. You won’t strip with a JIS screwdriver. But yea, Allen would be nice!

[@lalique1980]

👍👍👍👍👍👍🎄👍👍👍👍👍

[@emilyjons94]

y'all don't make fun of me but one of the cables on mine was a bit freyed and I couldn't get it in right so I just cut it off. the throttle works great now but I don't know what that other cable was for.

[@limargasim6661]

[@bradyn2193]
