Just a small bump in the road. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robertaccio 446 Posted June 19, 2013 This issue is with the component supplier Domino or is it Magura brand throttles (which ever KTM uses). The cable outer pops out of the throttle case and you get out of control rev from the taught cable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

robertaccio 446 Posted June 19, 2013 THX!!! Mimi thats about as clear as it gets!! Hey is it Domino? or Magura? or another brand supplier? I got it now, that cast in ridge helps retain the cable in the pulley so it doesn't hop out and get all jammed up. (I actually thought it was the cable outer popping out of the end of the tube) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
