Removing Throttle Body on Summit Gen 4

[tessier45]

I haven't spent a lot of time looking at it but I am wondering if there's good instructions on removing throttle. I want to put on new bars and I over tightened the body causing the casing to crack. Any tips out there? Thanks

Yah have to remove the handgrip and the heated grip, and cork material to get it off. The heating element will have to be replaces along with the cork material. Stick a blow gun in the hole and blast compressed air in the end of the grip to remove and install it.

Did they change the element type from the xm? A little heat from a blow dryer and peel the element off carefully, might get lucky with the cork too but unlikely. Cork is cheap element not so much

You are talking about the throttle housing. Not a big deal but totally different removal procedures though haha
