Installation Instructions
- Slide the rubber sleeve down and remove the throttle housing, taking care to not damage the throttle cables while removing the old throttle tube.
- Gently remove the grip from the old throttle tube if necessary.
- Check that the cables and housing are not too damaged or worn, clean and lubricate them, or replace as needed.
- Clean the handlebars and check for damage where the old throttle tube rotated on the bars; if a notch is present, replace the handlebars.
- Slide the new throttle tube onto the handlebars and lubricate it with a penetrating lubricant, preferably Maxima MPPL (do not use grease as it attracts dirt and makes the throttle stick after a short time).
- Reassemble the throttle cables and housing using a penetrating lubricant.
- Tighten the throttle housing in the correct position on the handlebars.
- Adjust the cable slack to your liking.
- Rotate the handlebars to their maximum position to check the throttle’s proper operation and correct routing of the cable; some re-adjustment of the cable may be necessary.
- Slide the rubber sleeve over the housing.
- Cover the end hole of the grip with insulating tape (to prevent glue from entering the throttle barrel) and apply a small amount of special RFX grips glue to the outer end of the throttle tube, on the outer diameter.
- Apply a small amount of special RFX grips glue to the inside of the new grip and slide it over the tube.
- Twist the grip into the correct position and allow to dry.
- Apply the grip safety wire RFX if necessary.
- After the glue has dried, check the throttle’s proper operation again.
