quick action throttle

[Kev L]

My Suzuki GT250 has a single cable which splits into three to control the oil pump and carbs, that's never caused any issues (apart from large blue clouds of 2 stroke smoke. Breath it in ).

Needed a new throttle tube and grips, so got a quick action from david silver, 20 quid delivered and may i say its fantastic!!! but ill have to remember to be a little throttle friendly! Lol

What's the fitting process like? I'm gonna be spending a short amount of time on a 33bhp restrictor so it's gonna have the throttle being wrung quite often and I don't want a dodgy wrist

[lloydie]

Easy :-) but can involve tank removal
So best done at the same time as the restriction

Tank will be getting removed quite often. Currently buying parts for after the track day to fit whenever I have time (goodbye sweet money ) a lot of it is basically stuff for the 8k mile service but I'm thinking some QOL improvements might be required

yeah like lloydie said, may need to take the tank and airbox off. Luckily the last time I did carbs, I gave the v=cables alot of slck and tightned it at the throttle again as I knew I was gunna change the tube. I found that by taking the handlebar off made it a little easier. I also put the grip on the throttle before ive put it on the handlebar again. but this is just what I did

It's all a bit of a blur these days...I really don't like to think about it TBH...




Back in the day in Nam fighting through the jungle hell around Khe Sanh, just me & my trusty M16 against 1000's of Charlie...oh god it's all coming back...
ARRRRRRGGGGHHHHH DIE CHARLIE DIE !...You weren't there man it was hell on earth...






Er sorry bit of a flashback there...What was the question again...oh yeah...Hit the back of a Ford Galaxy which had stopped dead because the old doffer in front of him had stopped because he hit the brake instead of the gas...But I don't like to talk about it TBH...too many bad memories...
