Re: Hi... from Australia
Hi, ive fitted the engine and the rear sprocket so far. when it says you need to drill a small hole in the handle bar to locate the throttle tit, what does it mean and do i really need to drill a hole?
Thanks

Re: Hi... from Australia
I have done it with and with out. The lil nub thing can be broken off if you choose not to drill a hole for it. But have found it is better to drill. Not all that hard with a drill press but a real pain with a hand drill. Is an optional thing. If you do drill the hole, just use the throttle to line up where the hole should be and mark the spot with a sharpie or magic marker. Some handle bars will have markings already but never seem to be close enough to the end of the bar but have the angle right.

Re: Hi... from Australia
Brassoman I always drill a hole for the pin, it stops the throttle from twisting around if the clamping screws work themselves loose, from end of handle bar measure 12.5mm back & center punch on mark, then drill 4.5mm hole
