DL650 Throttle Tube
« on: April 21, 2014, 22:47:35 »
Can anyone please confirm if the throttle tube on the K4-K6 Wee is the same as the one on the K7> Wee?

It's different. The part numbers don't match and the separate switch gear and throttle reel was unitized in 2007.
Pat- 2007 DL650A was ridden to all 48 contiguous states. 2012 DL650A outlasted me.
Nicknames I use to lessen typing, Vee = 2002-2012 (K2-L2) DL1000s. Veek=2014+ (L4+) DL1000s. Wee = 2004-2011 (K4-L1) DL650s. Glee = 2012+ (L2+) DL650s

Meh, thanks. I was hoping I would get away with ordering a MotionPro one for a K7 :(

Found that a MotionPro aftermarket replacement throttle tube for a 2003-2004 model SV1000. The parts fiche shows that the K3-5 SV1000 models use the same throttle tube as the K4-6 DL650. Have to order it from the US though, but want some MotionPro cables anyway so might score on the postage.
