FAQs

Does this cable come pre-lubricated?

It is recommended to apply a small amount of cable lubricant during installation to ensure optimal performance.

Can I use this on a 2017 KTM model?

No, this specific part (TC561 T) is only compatible with the model years listed, specifically KTM SXF (2013-15) and EXC-F (2013-16).

What tools are needed for installation?

Basic hand tools such as a screwdriver and wrenches are typically sufficient to remove the throttle housing and adjust the cable.

Is this an OEM part?

It is an aftermarket performance part designed to meet or exceed OEM specifications for fit and function.

How often should I replace the throttle cable?

Replacement intervals depend on usage, but you should inspect it during every major service or if you notice any resistance when twisting the throttle.

Troubleshooting

Throttle feels sticky or sluggish

Check for sharp bends in the cable routing or apply a high-quality cable lubricant.

High idle speed after installation

Adjust the cable tension at the throttle housing adjuster until there is a small amount of free-play.

Cable seems too short or long

Verify the motorcycle model and year against the compatibility list, as routing variations can occur.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility

This cable is specifically designed for the following motorcycles:

  • KTM SXF 250-450 (2013-15)
  • KTM EXC-F 250-500 (2013-16)
  • Husqvarna FC 250-450 (2014-15)
  • Husqvarna FE 250-501 (2013-16)

Installation Tips

  1. Ensure the handlebars are in a neutral position to avoid tension during routing.
  2. Route the cable through the original factory guides to prevent snagging.
  3. Adjust the cable tension at the adjuster barrel to eliminate excessive free-play without causing a high idle.

Care

Regularly inspect the cable for fraying near the ends. Apply a dedicated cable lubricant periodically to maintain smooth movement and protect the inner wire from corrosion.
