For motorcycle enthusiasts, especially those passionate about customizing their bikes, the SR400/500 flat type of throttle tube is designed to simplify the grip replacement process, a common modification for café racer & custom projects or simply use as an OEM replacement. The design eliminates the need to navigate the ribbing found on OEM throttle tubes, which can be incompatible with many aftermarket grips. The flat surface of the POSH SR400/500 tube ensures that grip changes are straightforward and hassle-free.
Moreover, the SR400/500 throttle tube offers a quicker throttle response, with an 8% faster ratio than the OEM version. This enhancement can improve the riding experience, providing a more responsive acceleration. Compatibility with OEM cables and carbs is maintained, but the tube also supports popular carburettor upgrades such as the FCR, TMR, or CRS type carbs. This versatility allows riders to retain the original throttle and switch setup, avoiding the need for additional modifications.
It's important to note that while the POSH SR400/500 throttle tube is designed for ease of use, attention to detail during installation is crucial. Differences in grip insertion clearance and throttle opening may occur, and the use of quality grip glue is essential to ensure a secure fit. For heated grips, proper positioning and secure adhesion are vital to avoid any potential issues just like the OEM tube.
An essential part for anyone looking to convert to clip-on bars or customise their SR400/500 with aftermarket grips and carbie. Whether you're a seasoned builder or a newcomer to the café racer scene, the SR400/500 throttle tube is a worthy addition to avoid frustrating grip swap issue….Made in Japan to ensure quality!
