    Just curious if anyone knows a good way to adjust this? Or lube it? It doesn’t really snap back that smoothly.. how do I take the grip off? Can I grease it? Thanks in advance everyone!!

    you uremove control and the throttle slides off of the bar clean bar and inside the throttle tube lube with some grafite . lube the cable. add a littl silicon to the groove the cable rides on.

    the yamaha throttle grip is sold as an assembly with the tube. bottom of tube has flanges that fit into the grip.

    you can blow some air and lube into the grip and tube ( lift grip edge then remove grip.
