ZX6R QA throttle $23

Post by Aussie Ninja »

Some of you have probably heard you can use a KLR650 Tengai throttle tube to give a quicker action to a 6R. I rang Kawasaki expecting to pay $100 for one "Only $23! Hell yes get one in." The tube comes with a grip on it that can be cut off. Once this is off there are tabs that were used to hold it on and they have to go too. Open up the end of it so it will slip over the bar and that's about it. Take off the factory one and replace it with your new quick action throttle. full turn is about 60 to 70 degrees, so not stupid fast, but now I can be cruising along and crack the thottle right open without moving my hand around or being double jointed. Don't know if this will work for all 6's but it definately will for G's, J's and A's :D :twisted:
Real bravery is being afraid but doing it anyway.
