Sorry I know its been asked but the answers were not clear to me. What are my options with part numbers for a new throttle tube. The previous owner hacked up the original throttle tube and I would like to replace it. I have handguards so whatever I replace it with needs removable end caps.

 

I just replaced mine with an inexpensive Motion Pro deal. I don't think the KLX requires anything costly or technical. If you run barkbuster style hand guards/protectors, you don't need a high dollar metal/alloy throttle tube because the guard will protect the plastic tube. Plus a decent plastic one like the Motion Pro version is highly impact resistant. Grinding an opening for the guard mount is easily done on bench grinder or with a Dremel tool.

 

Do you have the part number for that one? There are several on the motion pro website. Does it fit the 09 KLX250S? Thanks for your help.

 

I notice their site doesn't show one, but I used the 01-0080. This model fits just about every Honda and Kawasaki dirt and DS model with a push/pull throttle. Don't get the Titan model Motion Pro as it's not supposed to have the end of the tube opened for mounting the handguards.

 

I used an aftermarket Zeta quick turn throttle, i love it

 

Zeta Quick Turn about $30...Motion Pro about $10. They both work.

 

i have a spare oem throttle tube off my 2009 if you want, but seems like if motion pro is only $10...might as well go that route...i don't remember how much i paid or what brand i bought for my aluminum short turn throttle tube...

 

Zeta is short turn, its ilke $40, well worth it not having to grab two fists full of throttle

 

Two fists full of throttle?...Oh...wait a minute...I fixed that issue with a pumper carb.

 

haha!
