Wanted: Throttle and Brake assembly
« on: June 16, 2016, 12:34:48 PM »
Would anyone have, or know where I can get a throttle and brake assembly? I was putting new bars on my bike (Café conversion) and I did not know that the bars I bought were very slightly bigger than whats on as standard. The left side went on ok with a bit of persuasion but the right side got stuck and then broke. Stupid in hindsight but anyway I now need a new one.
Would anyone have one spare or know where I can find one?
Thanks

Thanks Johnny, I'm not sure on part numbers I'll have to get back to you.
Let me take a photo of the damage and post back in a few days :)

This is a photo of the controls as is. You can see whats broken but the entire thing is wedged on.
Does anyone have a replacement?

It looks like you just need the housing—see the attached photo. Is that correct?

Once you've tried to spray penetrant between the assembly and the bar then slowly twisted it back and forth to loosen it, try using freeze spray on just the bar.

Thanks Laitch! Yes I think so! Not 100% sure as the bike is currently with a friend getting some work done so I have not had a good look at it but I'm hoping thisis the case! Where would I get the housing from?
Thanks

The photo is from MAX BMW in the States. It's a new part. Motobins, Motoworks UK or a BMW dealer somewhere over there certainly should be willing to take your money for the same part. Once you remove the part, be sure that's all you need. You'll probably need a new cable, too, if that's been neglected.

If you are still in need of one I have one off of a k100 I'm parting out. Shoot me a PM if you still need it.
