I forgot to mention that the two Phillips screws at the throttle grip are different lengths. The longer one goes on top.

[@garrettoetken7595]

Seriously you have the best videos for working on the XT250!

[@EndlessMoneyPits]

Thank you! I have more xt250 videos in the works.

[@garrettoetken7595]

@@EndlessMoneyPits I look forward to them! I have a 2012 XT250 with a carburetor, so it’s very helpful that you have the same generation bike

[@tsoukallos]

[@EndlessMoneyPits]

Yes, the throttle cable needs to be the correct length and also needs to be routed correctly to work.
