throttle

Just wondering? I've seen most discussion here on EFI about changing to GSXR fuel injection setup on the Vmax. What if any is the difference an/or pros and cons between say YZF R6 vacuum diaphragm throttle bodies? and the GSXR type? seems to me it might be good to stay with the same manufacture...

This show on Discovery HD Theater gets Jayhawk's Seal of Approval. :punk: Every week they feature a different bike manufacturer, and tonight's show is Yamaha. Get your DVRs ready. This is a terrific series. Twist the Throttle

Hello all, I have a damaged throttle plate in my #1 carb that is not making a proper seal around the edge. Apparently, the throttle plate is not listed as a "replacement part" by the dealer, meaning I would have to purchase a new carb for over $500. Does anyone know where I could buy a...

I have tried everything but there still binding. By binding I mean they will not fully return to the closed position after being opened without a little help. They are definetly installed the correct way and I greased the junction box and wd40'd the cables. Any suggestions? Thanks, Abe

Okay I just ordered the Kurakyn grips and throttle boss from Python. Anything I should know about doing the swap? Thanks. Andy

Well... Gonna be changin' out both top throttle cables here within the next few days... Any tips ? Is this a pain ? Any suggestions wold be GREATLY appreciated. Nice here in Oh. and don't wanna down for long ... Gotta be springs n #@it in there...:bang head: Thanks ... Also, did the...

Has anyone converted over to a single cable rather then the 2 part cable? I am wanting to change out the PUSH cable to one cable rather then the 2 piece has anyone done this if so what cable part number or application did you use? NOTE: While checking my cables today I noticed that the...

The GSXR throttle bodies have arrived, here are some pics. The sets should be a 1000, 750 and 600. The two larger sets are dimensionally the same. The good news is the center distances are the same, be it a 600 or 1000. That will make it easy to respace the bodies. The same details will work on...

looking at getting a pair for low 40's to low 50's degree riding. I have a pair of leather gloves but no insulation on them. Looking for an affordable item, not looking to go heated or anything.. these came across on my searches and went down to the local stealership and they fit very nicely...

My '01 with 9300 miles sometimes hesitates and sputters upon light acceleration. At 2000 rpm and above, the bike is strong. V-boost kicks in around 6000 and the thing really hauls ass; no problem there. The dealer I bought it from and his tech says everything seems okay and Vmax's are very...

49-state carbs have #125 and Cal bikes have #130...what is the difference? Thanx, Bud

So.. is there a way to lower the amount the throttle turns from base to WOT? I'm pretty sure for other bikes (such as the sv650), they make "gears" so the amount the throttle turns is less. I haven't taken apart where the throttle cables link in to the grip but from my understanding its...

My throttle cable is doing something strange. If i let go of the throttle the bike drops back to idle but if i twist the throttle more in the opposite direction (toward closed) it turns about 1/8 inch and will drop the idle down to a stall i have not looked at this closer yet i just parked it...

I have a 99 Vmax with 2500 miles on it. I rode homw last week and it run beautifully like always. Unfortunately now after having sat a week without riding it I can get it to start with the choke on but if I give it throttle or let up on the choke the engine will cut off. I have no Idea why and...

Guys I have gasoline and carb cleaner all over me, so I apologize in advance for not searching before asking this. Can the throttle linkage be removed without splitting the carbs? The screws to the brackes that locate them from front to rear are so f'ing tight that I can't get any leverage on...

Well, the bike has seemed to run fine for quite some time. But today I did a little 70 mile hop from the bike's primary location (5700ft) to where I am now (6700ft). I noticed along the way that I can't go WOT - the bike stumbles like it's only running on 2 or 3 cylinders the minute I whack the...

The ones from Yammy come with a grip. I ordered some new grips, and don't know if the guy glued the old one on the throttle tube. This is a "just in case" kind of deal. Thanks, Dustin

Q: My engine sometimes dies on cutting the throttle after high speed A: It sounds like the engine is starving for mixture at closed throttle. I would check the throttle cables and throttle butterflies. It could be that the throttle valves are closing all the way and starving the engine. Check...

Any help here would be appreciated. Background - When I got her, she had set up in a garage for a long time, so I had to have the local Yamaha shop clean the tank of rust, clean the carbs and reset the RPM's to 1.100. Since then, if I am running her a tad over the posted speed limits on the...
