Pro Series Throttle Sleeves

The RFX Pro series throttle tubes are machined from billet aluminium and feature a sealed bearing and a Teflon sleeve for effortless throttle operation. The RFX Pro series tubes are resilient to damage in the event of a collision, unlike standard plastic tubes. For these reasons, they are used by many racing teams and top riders in British championships, such as STR KTM.

  • Replacement throttle tubes for all known dirt bikes.
  • Uses the same cam profile as the original part for good throttle control.
  • Hard anodised billet aluminium construction.
  • The sealed ball bearing and Teflon sleeve virtually eliminate any friction.
  • RFX logo laser-etched.
  • Textured grip mounting area.
  • Reduced risk of damage in the event of an accident.

Installation Instructions

  • Slide down the rubber sleeve and disassemble the throttle housing, removing the old throttle tube while being careful not to damage the throttle cables.
  • 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 if necessary.
  • Clean the handlebar and check that it is not damaged where the old throttle tube has rotated on the handlebar; if a burr is present, replace the handlebar.
  • Slide the new throttle tube onto the handlebar and lubricate it with a penetrating lubricant, preferably Maxima MPPL (do not use grease as it attracts dirt and causes the throttle to stick after a short time).
  • Reconnect the throttle cables and housing using a penetrating lubricant.
  • Tighten the throttle housing in the correct position on the handlebar.
  • Adjust the cable play as desired.
  • Turn the handlebar to its maximum position to check the proper functioning of the throttle and the correct routing of the cable; some cable readjustment may be needed.
  • Slide the rubber sleeve over the housing.
  • Cover the end of the grip opening with insulating tape (to prevent glue from entering the throttle barrel) and apply a small amount of RFX special grip glue to the outer end of the throttle tube on the outer diameter.
  • Apply a small amount of RFX special grip glue inside the new grip and slide it onto the tube.
  • Twist the grip into the correct position and allow it to dry.
  • Apply the brake wire for RFX grips if necessary.
  • After the glue has dried, check the proper functioning of the throttle once again.
