FAQs

What makes this throttle assembly different from the stock one?

This Apico assembly is a direct replacement, often designed to meet or exceed the quality of the original part, offering a reliable and potentially more durable option with a specific aesthetic finish.

Is this compatible with my 2020 KTM SX65?

No, this specific model (THROTTLE 14 SV) is designed for model years 2021-2025 for the 65cc bikes. Please check the compatibility list carefully for your exact model and year.

Do I need to buy a new throttle cable for this assembly?

This is a complete throttle assembly. It typically includes the throttle tube and housing. You will reuse your existing throttle cable unless it is damaged or excessively worn.

How often should I clean my throttle assembly?

It's good practice to clean the exterior and check the cable function periodically, especially after riding in dusty or wet conditions. A deep clean or lubrication might be needed annually or if you notice any performance issues.

Can I use this on a different brand of motorcycle not listed?

It is strongly recommended to only use this assembly on the specified KTM, Husqvarna, and Gas Gas models listed in the compatibility section. Using it on incompatible bikes may lead to improper function or safety issues.

What tools are required for installation?

Basic tools such as screwdrivers, wrenches, and potentially Allen keys are typically required. A torque wrench is recommended for final tightening of any clamps or bolts.

Troubleshooting

Throttle is sticky or slow to return

Check for cable kinks or obstructions. Ensure the throttle cable is properly lubricated and tensioned. Verify that no debris is interfering with the throttle tube's rotation.

Throttle cable is loose

Adjust the throttle cable tension at the adjustment points on the cable or carburetor/throttle body end according to your motorcycle's service manual.

Assembly does not fit handlebars correctly

Verify that your motorcycle model and year match the product's compatibility list. Ensure you are using the correct mounting hardware provided or recommended for your specific bike.

Throttle snaps back aggressively

This usually indicates proper spring function. If it feels too aggressive, ensure the cable is not over-tensioned and that the throttle tube is clean and free of friction.
