Yamaha TT-R125 Dirt Bike (2000 - Present): How to Adjust Throttle Tube Free Play
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 сер 2022
- This video shows how to adjust the throttle tube free play on a Yamaha TT-R125 dirt bike (all model years and variants). The specific bike in the video is a 2009 Yamaha TT-R125LE. This video may also apply to many other dirt bike and motorcycle models as well, regardless of brand or displacement.
A properly adjusted throttle tube is paramount to crisp throttle application when riding. Comment below if you have any questions!
I hope I may be able to help someone out! Thanks for watching, and ride safely! - Авто та транспорт

Happy to help! Thanks!
Thanks for the help
No problem, James! If there's anything else you need help with, please let me know!
Mine returns so slowly basically I gotta take it back by myself…
should I make the same process??

Yes, I would start by seeing if you can get free play by adjusting the throttle cable (you'll need to shorten the cable instead of lengthening it - this video shows lengthening it). If adjustment doesn't seem to "loosen" or spring back the throttle tube, then I would disassemble the throttle tube assembly itself. It's very possible there is dirt or debris in the throttle tube (or under it - between the tube and the handlebar). That debris can cause the symptom of a "sticky" throttle as you are explaining. Once it's properly adjusted and cleaned up, it should snap back on its own.
Good luck to you!
Thank you! Quick question, I have a ttr110 for my daughter, the throttle snaps back in all positions except when the wheel is turned hard left, then it sticks. Is there an adjustment for the return tension, or could not be something like a pinched/worm cable? Thanks
Great question! My best bet is the cable is pulling when the bars are turned far left. Check the cable tension when when far to the left and see if you can route the cable in such a way that it has as much slack as possible, regardless if the bars are turned far left or right.
