I'm looking for a throttle spindle for a XB12X Ulysses but a hole throttle body will do. Has any one got one spare or know of one for sale?
thanks NAT

What size hole do you want??

You found the problem then?

This seems to be a common failure on BadWeb. Someone started making replacement ones IIRC.

Seen someone's advert somewhere for a new throttle body, and also a pic of one that broke at one of the butterfly screws . Not sure whether all FI models are affected, how common the problem is, and what mods can be done to stop it happening . Obviously a bit of damage to the valves would occur if a screw and bits of brass were sucked in from a disintegrating spindle .

I'm glad I never go there then

Will the body from a R6 fit?

I've just realised what a stupid reply this was. I was rushing through the Posts at work, and assumed you meant a twistgrip assembly

Please ignore me in future

I dont no if an r6 body will fit but i only need a throttle butterfly spindle, but ive fixed it temporarily by getting it welded back to gether again. Ive heard that somone is making them but i dont no who.

Total form the BWB forum had some done i think he still has a few left selling for 75$ plus shipping. 2006 and 2007 models.

Maybe we see if Spondon440 is interested in making some.

once a machine set up to do a batch then shouldn't take long to make and therefore price should be ok only problem is Badweb say very few failures IIRC 6 so is there a market out there that would buy them ?
