  • NEEDED Throttle Grip for an XJ

    Hi All,
    I was twisting the ole throttle and it twisted off in my hand!!

    Does anyone have a spare throttle grip piece? The assembley is fine, the white plastic that the grip goes over is broken at the base. I am going to try gorillia gluing it but am afraid it won't hold and will break loose at the worst possible moment!

    thanks!

    You should be able to buy a replacement from Yamaha, or an online parts store(mikes xs, bikebandit, etc.).
