FAQs

Does this include the rubber grip?

No, this is a replacement throttle sleeve assembly. You will need to install your own choice of grips onto the sleeve.

Will this fit my 2015 Yamaha YZ250F?

The THROTTLE 8 is designed for a wide range of Yamaha models. Please verify your specific VIN or model year against the manufacturer's compatibility list provided with the part.

Is this made of plastic or metal?

The sleeve is constructed from high-quality, impact-resistant synthetic material designed to provide the ideal balance of weight and durability for motocross.

Do I need to grease the sleeve during installation?

While the sleeve is designed for smooth operation, you should follow your motorcycle manufacturer's service manual regarding the use of lubricants on the handlebar.

Can I use this for street bikes?

This component is specifically engineered for motocross and enduro applications and may not be suitable for the throttle housing assemblies found on street-legal sport bikes.

Troubleshooting

Throttle feels sticky or sluggish after installation

Ensure the handlebar is clean of debris and check that the throttle cables are properly routed without kinks.

Throttle does not return to the idle position automatically

Adjust the cable tension at the throttle housing or check if the grip is rubbing against the end of the handlebar or bark busters.

Sleeve does not slide onto the handlebar

Verify that your specific motorcycle model and year is compatible with the THROTTLE 8 specs and ensure there are no burrs or damage on the handlebar metal.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before installation, ensure your motorcycle is stabilized on a stand. Remove the existing throttle housing screws, carefully disconnect the throttle cables, and slide off the old grip and sleeve. Clean the handlebar surface of any debris or old lubricant before sliding the new Raceline sleeve onto the bar. Reattach the cables according to your specific motorcycle service manual, ensuring there is no binding or tension when the bars are turned fully left or right. It is recommended to use a thin layer of appropriate handlebar lubricant if specified by your bike's service manual. Periodically inspect the sleeve for cracks or excessive wear after heavy riding sessions.
