R6 throttle tube - no cut or cut ? - SV650.org

09-08-10, 04:57 PM

ok so going to order a r6 throttle tube but some people cut them but on canyonchasers they say you dont need to cut them if fitting to gen1(n or s) or gen 2 naked but you do when fitting to a gen 2 S model

is this the case ? as some people still cut them even for the naked gen 2

LINK

can any one clear this up

PS i have a naked gen 2 (k3)

try it and see if you still got full travel

ok been over to svrider and they all say naked no cut and s cut as the throttle housing is different and like the curvy needs no cutting so i guess i will just stick it in and try it

should be able to see if its opening fully by looking at the throttle linkage ?

Which would have saved you the bother of posting this

I'm hurt you didn't belive me. Hurt, really hurt. I could be emotionally scarred for years.

In fact, I'm calling my lawyer!
