THROTTLE KIT INSTRUCTIONS


WARNING:

IMPROPER INSTALLATION COULD RESULT IN GREAT BODILY INJURY OR DEATH.

THIS KIT IS TO BE INSTALLED BY A TRAINED TECHNICIAN IN A PROPERLY EQUIPPED SHOP.

THESE INSTRUCTIONS ARE FOR USE WITH TWIST GRIP TYPE THROTTLE KITS.

THESE KITS ARE DESIGNED TO REPLACE THE ORIGINAL THUMB THROTTLE

WITH A TWIST GRIP TYPE THROTTLE .



1. Remove the seat and fuel tank. Carefully observe how the stock throttle cable is routed from
the thumb throttle to the carburetor or throttle body. This is how you will want to route the new
cable.

2. Temporarily remove any clamps or guides used to retain the throttle cable. Remove the
stock thumb throttle assembly.

3. Note: On carburetors or throttle bodies where the throttle cable is connected to an external
bell-crank, it is not necessary to remove the carburetor cap or slide (skip sections 3 to 5
however, please read warnings) . Before removing the carburetor cap, thoroughly clean the
outside of the carburetor. Unscrew the cap and remove the slide by carefully lifting using the
carb cap. Do not allow any dirt or foreign material to enter the opening left in carburetor.
Placing a clean rag in the opening of the carburetor will help avoid this problem. WARNING:
ANY DIRT OR FOREIGN MATERIAL THAT ENTERS THE CARBURETOR CAN CAUSE THE
THROTTLE SLIDE TO STICK.

4. Pull the spring away from the slide and remove the retaining plate. Remove the slide, spring
and cap from the old cable. Install the cap, spring and slide onto the new cable. Make sure the
needle is in the correct position and reinstall the retaining plate.

5. Remove the rag in the carburetor opening. Again, be careful that dirt or foreign material
does not enter the carburetor. Install the throttle slide into the carburetor. Make sure the guide
pin slides into the groove on the slide (slide cutaway to rear). Tighten the carburetor cap. Pull
on the top cable end to make sure the full travel (up and down) of the slide is smooth, without
binding. WARNING: DO NOT REASSEMBLE OR START THE ENGINE IF THE SLIDE DOES
NOT RETURN FULLY TO THE DOWN CLOSED POSITION.
