Loose throttle / cable


Recommended Posts

I took a video rather than trying to explain.  I’m not sure when this started but I Definitely didn’t notice it this bad before this morning on my way to work.  Something to note, a few weeks ago the cables on the right side (not sure which one as wasn’t watching it) caught the head of the cigarette lighter and ripped it apart during a parking lot maneuver.

Question is, what part / parts should I be fixing or replacing?

Ok found the problem the white plastic piece finally had enough apparently and the cable was just sitting inside the housing.  (Put back in place for the pic.)  According to this IPB looks like it’s part of the grip assembly item 19.  Or is there an insert I can buy?

Spend the extra$ and get the throttle boss with them. You don't have to buy Kuryakyn, there are many copies that perform just as well. I've had both and could not detect any difference in feel or performance. I can tell you the design is spectacular and I will never own a bike that does not have these grips.

If I’m gonna replace the grips I’d like to do so with some heated ones.  I Did a search on google for ISO and just gotta figure out what fits.
