    Lightbulb I need some stuff!

    My first post in bloody ages O_o.

    I'm trying to get my project bike up n running, but i need a complete throttle grip assembly as some dick ran over it in his cage......
    I need a second hand unit tho, not for a zxr either, it's just for a wee single speed 125cc mini bike i've got .

    I'm in chch and i've tried the wrecker on tuam st, but every time I've been there, he's either

    a) a wanker
    b) unwilling to help
    c) nowhere to be seen nor found despite being open
    d) most of the above >_<

    Any ideas?

    Several ZXRs being wrecked on tardme, place a question on an auction and ask them to list the throttle.

    Try Don at Pit Lane on Manchester St.

    He's not a wanker
    Will be willing to help
    You will see him (hes a big buggar)


    Its harder to lose weight than gain horsepower.

    yea, i've been there before!

    I was after a battery, and don didn't have the one i needed in stock that day, so he spent about 40 minutes trying to put a smaller but just as effective battery in the bike just to get my going til he got the other one in! and no charge!

    I'm really looking for a second hand unit tho, and its not for the zxr either, it's just for a wee single speed 125cc mini bike i've got

    Ideas on the above you summed it up perfectly

    if you're after a throttle assembly, just a cheap after market one try Better spares down Wilsons Rd they're bound to have a cheap universal fit assembly

    Yeah the wrecker on Tuam street didn't seem very helpful to me either.

    Said he had never had a wrecked zxr250a... Found that rather weird.

    There's supposedly an ok bike wrecker in Timaru if that's worth anything.
