Missing screw

Post by V4mp »

Hi,

Looks like I didn't torque my handlebar controls properly because I have lost one screw on throttle hand side. :oops:
Can someone measure screws thread length so I can get a new one? I assume thread itself is the same as in others screws.

Hi V4mp,

That parts pic doesn't match the reality of my (OEM) throttle assembly, since what I take to be the illustrated clamp screws appear short and identical. On my Raptor1K, the clamp screw to the rear, next to the starter trigger, has a 29mm-long shank inc thread, whereas the forward one, between the throttle cables is much longer at 49mm. Both screws are 5mm threads, and have an unthreaded portion of 10mm or so, with mushroom heads for a cross-head screwdriver. If I had to replace mine, I'd go for hex socket-heads, fully-threaded.

There is a third screw under there that simply retains the forward throttle cable, and it is also 5mm thread but only has 9mm of fully-threaded shank.

Hope this helps!

Nick
