Installed Mikuni TM 34MM......

[BlackBarron]

i just got my v-force 3's and mikuni tm 34mm on and the thumb throttle is very stiff. so stiff that it is hard to ride all i can do is speed shift. i looked to see if there was anything pinching the line or something making it stiff but nothing. does anyone have this problem with there bike? or does it loosen up after a while? thanks

my mikuni 34mm carbs are hard too but you will get used to it after a lil bit a hour or so into the ride you wont feel it

Do yourself a favor and get a honda throttle 400 or 300ex. if your worried about the logo,get a billet top.

 

The Honda throttles have a totally different ratio. everyone I know with banshees run them, even some of the YFZ's have them

There's a thread going around right now where the carb springs are being cut to soften up that thumb throttle.

I have the same carbs, and mine was really stiff also. I cut a little bit off of both springs, and it is much better now.

How much do you have to cut? Got the same problem here..
