Specs At A Glance

Good To Know

Q: How do I know if my throttle cable needs replacing? A: Stiff or delayed throttle response, visible fraying, or a cable that will not return smoothly are common signs the throttle cable should be replaced. Inspecting the sheath for cracks alongside the inner cable helps confirm the issue.

Q: Does this throttle cable require any adjustment after installation? A: After fitting this throttle cable, check the free play at the throttle lever and adjust the cable adjuster to match the specification for your GP 1200. Confirm the throttle returns fully before riding.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
