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. 🙌🏼
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.
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
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
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!
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.

thanks bud! this worked for me and now my throttle is no longer sticky - it now returns as nice as yours
Have a yz450f that had gritty throttle and followed your video step by step now it twist smooth even better than factory. Thanks!
This helped so much and saved me a ton of time and money
Great job. Your straight forward and professional.
Great Vid. Super helpful. STEP BY STEP 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Most helpful video on TH-cam!👍
Great video it helped me i was having problems on my crf 250r but did what u show and now its good thank you
When i took my bikes throttle apart a little white thing came out like a plastic white thing what is that
I use my nans toothbrush to clean the handle
Ur video got me outa trouble tonight
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!
Be nice to know what year make and model
Won't that grease/lube attract dirt and gum up the throttle tube and cable housing?
Good video man 👍
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
That dry oil stuff
Great vid, thanks
Awesome vid and edits and filming and bike and shop
Thanks!

What type of grease

@@danielgardzina6982 thanks
Cheers mate
Can I do this even if I have hand guards on my bikr
Yes just use an allen or whatever bolt is used for the guard.
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
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.
Thanks very helpful
Throttle cable sticks from carburetor
Only thing wrong with video is namura… had two piston skirts break within an hour. One wiseco, no issue.
Good video tho

Great instructions my man! but too many "Itself" LOL
terrible
No u.
i use a toothbrush to clean inside the throttle handle
did it work good ? because i’m about to use a tooth brush
@@lorenzoresendiz3898 ya. You can wrap a cleanWipe around it too. works even better
Cleaned mine this way to using rubbing alcohol
I was just getting ready to say toothbrush works great
