I was recently looking through the pdf shop manual for my 09 te510, and I came across the page where they say on the injector pump to remove this throttle stop. Has anyone removed this on their bike, how effective it is, what does it do? Thanks for any help.
There are certain models that have a stop to prevent the throttle from opening fully. I would guess that it would make a huge difference. There are photos on here about how to modify it. Cam.
It is loc-tited on so heads up on that. On later year models it keeps revs below 8000. The actual screws that hold it in are JIS (Japanese Industrial Standard) , not Phillips, although they look like it. Don't jimmy them up....
I second your warning on the screws, this looks like one of those "I'll quick do this, it'll only take 10 minutes or so" jobs. Because I was using the wrong tool and dealing with loctite I ended up with big pain in the but mess. Now I know what that other tip in my screwdriver set is and what to use it for.
Good thing I came to this forum before I embarked on something like this. has anyone tried it? What kind of results did you get, is it worth it?
I never got any but located them in an Amazon search. http://www.amazon.com/Hozan-JIS-4-J...d=1365897495&sr=8-1&keywords=JIS screwdrivers
I have also just bought a stock standard te510 2008. If the bike has the throttle stop, is there no problem to just remove it without doing any other adjustments? Thanks
No need. Squirt the screws with some Kroil and let them soak while you have a beer. They will most likely come right out using a phillips head screwdriver. If not, a tap or two with a chisel counterclockwise will break them loose. Replace them with hex head cap screws.
Kroil, man oh man GREAT stuff! It will also take copper and lead fouling right out of rifle-shotgun-pistol barrels. Maybe even 105 howitzers as well.
