Throttle grip sleeve ?

Post by Panman40 »

I know the rt is fly by wire but my throttle is a little bit creaky, normally I’d just use a light spray grease or silicon spray between the throttle tube and handlebar, is this fine to do on the bmw ?.

Go for it, I have grip puppies on mine and don't have any issues, but not too much, you don't want overspill, and nothing too sticky, so something like wd40 is the way to go.
