G2 Throttle Tamer for KTM
Smoother power delivery with the G2 Throttle Tamer Tube for KTM motorcycles. Progressive design for control in technical situations. Faster cornering – more traction – better confidence in gnarly conditions!
G2 Throttle Tamer Tube for KTM
The G2 Throttle Tamer for KTM motorcycles helps YOU become a better rider! How? It uses a “progressive” (non-circular) ratio between throttle grip turn and power delivery. By changing the shape of the pulley, or “cam”, the Throttle Tamer gives you a huge improvement in control!
Each KTM Throttle Tamer’s progressive shape is proven to be the best all-round solution for each model. For most models, the cam size begins about 20% smaller that stock, then it ramps up to the stock size by about one-half throttle.
The Throttle Tamer’s 20% smaller size requires slightly more turn at first, which makes a HUGE difference in control! As the power is rolled on, its far easier to modulate traction! The cam size increases, or ramps up, after ½ throttle to keep overall rotation near stock rotation.
Whether your goals are faster cornering, less wheelspin or more finesse on those goat trails, the G2 Throttle Tamer will improve your control!
For 2 cable models (4 strokes or 2 stroke EFI), the cam appears circular from the side. However, if you look closely you will see a channel machined into the cam. This channel has our progressive “tamer” shape. Utilizing a channel provides all the control while keeping the cable positioned properly.
Are Delrin bushings better than ball bearings?
Conventional ball bearing equipped throttle tubes seem like a great idea. Once installed and you’re twisting the throttle (with the bike on a stand and the engine off) it sure feels sweet! But give it a “real world test”. While you’re sitting on the bike, apply a bit of downward pressure on the grip as you turn. You will immediately feel the aluminum tube contact the handlebar.
With G2 Throttles, the Delrin bushings prevent this completely! Push down all you want! In addition, ball bearings require constant maintenance (unlike our ball bearing solution called the Jimmy Twister), or the bearing will corrode and ultimately seize. Not so with our Delrin bushing equipped throttle tubes!
In addition, all G2 throttle tubes include a Delrin Friction Plate, which looks like a thin, black washer. This is installed onto the handlebar before the throttle tube and inside of the throttle housing. This stops aluminum-on-aluminum contact for a smooth, precise feel even while pushing inward!
Using handguards? No problem with the G2 Throttle Tamer Tube for KTM! The end cap is removeable (see above pic) and allows easy handguard installation. The knurled area provides solid grip adhesion. Just install a good quality grip (we highly recommend Domino Grips) and you’re good to go!

Mandatory for technical trail riding!

Great robust product, easy to install, super fast delivery. Extremely happy
James Cook –
Made my 2013 KTM XCF more predictable and controllable in tight woods riding. Was considering reprogramming ECU but this did the trick.
Andres M. –
Great value. Smoothed out the jerky 0-1/4 throttle.
James H. –
Turns smooth. Now my wife rides my 350xcf.
Kris Wilson –
Easy install and great results. Made the bike smoother on and off throttle. Still keep all the juice but make things more silky.
Ivan Forrester –
I had one of these on my old bike. After riding my new KTM 250 xcw tpi for about a month I was trying to figure out why I liked the power delivery on my older bike better. Bingo, I put a G2 throttle tamer on it and am happy again.

Outstanding. Definitely a 5+ Star Product. I enjoy riding mostly tight single trail, not hard enduro but some challenging bits, and I would say if I crashed, 9 times out of 10 it was because I was tired and my throttle/clutch control suffered. The G2 Dirt tamer helped IMMEDIATELY (I’ll still train and practice good throttle/clutch control, but this improvement was instant). The G2 Dirt Tamer still allows me to pop the front wheel if I want to, but makes the lower rev, 1st or 2nd gear crawl up tricky bits instantly more controllable. Fantastic piece of kit and if you have a 350 or higher enduro bike and are looking to get better control in the tight or slippery stuff, you should definitely try this product. Thanks Gary and the team at G2

Works killer and the install was pretty easy.
Kris S. –
More then satisfied.
The throttle tamer made a huge difference in the jerkiness of the throttle at lower speeds and RPMs.
