how do u take off the throttle cable from a 4 stroke? i have the throttle body opened but there is a throttle cable plastic guide that seems to be stuck pretty good...
I had to drill mine out and i bought the after market with Allen heads at hardware store but unfortunately when i tightened them it’s not tightened the housing tight on the handlebars to it doesn’t move so I just ordered new oem unfortunately
I could not find any video,pictures or step by step directions to do this on a 1998 KLX 300. I also tried all the forums I could find.- Any help appreciated..
Hey +1canyonguy, unfortunately, we do not have any bike specific videos or literature for this procedure. My best recommendation is to get either a factory or aftermarket repair manual to help you with the procedure if you're unable to figure it out by reversing the process of taking the old cables off.
+jason mccoll Hey Jason,Sorry, but your method of just removing the damaged cable just won't work. Your controls have two cables for a reason. One cable opens the throttle, and the other one closes it. Last thing you want would be to have your engine not be able to slow down. Cables should be replaced periodically anyways. Thanks for watching our videos and the question. You're a subscriber to our channel, right?
+BikeBandit Thanks for your reply. We were in a pinch. The bike was flipped backwards up a hillclimb and the push cable was crushed ia small spot. We ran all weekend using only the pull It worked but had a ton of play in it Although was very easy to twist. Thanks a new cable is on order now and yes Im a subscriber Great vids and products Thank you
Ryan Morgan Hey Ryan,From what I could find, Pantera is based in China. I'm not super familiar with them. Is your front brake cable-actuated or hydraulic? If you can find parts, you might have to buy not only a brake lever, but also the matching perch, but this could get really expensive really fast, as brake perches usually incorporate the brake reservoir too. If you still have the part that broke off, you might be able to remove the part still in the perch, and have someone reattach them via a weld. Levers are usually aluminum, and having someone weld it could also be pretty pricey. I've heard of folks drilling a hole in either half, and inserting a dowel, and then just use JB Weld externally. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but we're here to help. Holler if you need us. Thanks.
YourAverageChubbyGuy Hey Chubs,There are a lot of reasons that could be causing your leak. Was the part bumped and thus developed a crack? You don't mention the type or year of bike, but perhaps the seal/gasket is just old and has dried out enough to leak? Does this only happen when the bike is running, and the fuel system is under pressure, or does if just leak all the time? Is this a dirtbike and what you're calling your nozzle is actually the petcock? With a little more info from you, I can better help you diagnose the problem. Thanks much for watching our videos. You remembered to subscribe to our channel, right?
I have an 08 crf450r. I just cleaned the carb on it a few days ago, and it would start streaming out around the back of the nozzle (Where the fuel line hooks up to the carb) weather the bike was on or off,Which lead me to believe it was a o ring or gasket. But it finally just stopped yesterday. which is making me think now that something wasn't seated correctly. I certainly did subscribe man, Thanks for your help in advance
YourAverageChubbyGuy Hey YACG,Go to this page, but you'll have to remove the spaces that I put in, and you'll see what I think is your issue. Look at parts 2 and 17. They run about the same money. If you're leaking from the brass inlet, my guess is that your 2 is either torn, twisted, or worn out. Either way, you'll be cracking open your carb again to perform a little surgery. I say buy 17 and replace all the seals in that area. Hope this helps. Thanks for subscribing too. We appreciate your support, trust, and your business. Ride safe.@2008
YourAverageChubbyGuy Well I tried to do it twice and YT blocked me both times. On our site, you'll find a schematic of your carb. Look for #2 and #17 and you'll see what I meant in the other notes. Thanks.
thank you this video has been very helpful 👍! get yourself a new camera man though lol he likes to video your hands and not what you are working on lol
My bike just goes to the highest rpm, I've replaced the throutle cable, carb. Boot, and a air filter. I have even tyres the idle setting nothing has work. Can somone help me please.
woow..clearly not a crf 250 x.. your bike has a direct access to the carburator.. mine is placed behind everything that could possibly be in front of it..
Carl Mich Hey Carl,You're right. That's a Yamaha, not a Honda. As a former owner of a 250X, I'll agree with you 100% that the real estate and access around the engine was super tight. The job is still possible of course, just remember to write down the route of the cable as it came out and you'll have no issues installing the new one. Thanks for watching our videos and the reply. You remembered to subscribe, right?
BikeBandit.com do you have any tips on how could i get a better access to my carburator? should i dismantle the subframe part? because i would like to rejet as well..
13 years later and you're still helping out! Your instructions worked on my 2022 YZ450 FX I had it apart and forgot how to put it back together

The manual is totally useless for this procedure.@@bikebandit
Was it Kelly Smith that year? 2000 Mt. Mo 125cc...
Okay but why am I finding the local baker trying to help me fix my bike🤣
I have a question what if when I pull my throttle cable the bike accelerates by itself so when I turn it just accelerates
when you kick start the bike, does the garage door go up and down??
do i have to take of the carburator on my crf 250r?
Not quit ready to go rip.. After you clean that filter than you can!!! Great vids and keep the vids coming!!! Thanks
great video very good step by step instructions. very helpful thanks
Hello and thanks for the great how-to video.
However, I was wondering, why do so many 4-strokes have two throttle cables?
was wondering the same thing
on my bike my throttle stays open and need some help fixing it
Could be a couple things. Sounds like the cable length is to short. Possible solutions... confirm correct throttle cable and proper routing.
could you show me how to put in a new throttle cable but on a pocket bike
Thanks One of my throttle cables is damaged can I run the one pull cable and disconnect the push cable?

How do i put back the throttle drum on my bike
Any idea why I have a substantial fuel leak around my fuel nozzle?
