G2 Throttle Cam System – KTM
$109.95
Adjust throttle control on your KTM motorcycle when changing track or trail conditions. Included are 3 cams for different terrain.
Product Description
The G2 Throttle Cam System for KTM allows you to fine tune hand movement/rotation to what happens at the carburetor/throttle body. Why would you want to change this ratio? Imagine the pointer on your computer had only one speed with no adjustment. Chances are it would be annoyingly slow or so fast you would over shoot everything you want to click! At G2 Ergonomics, we wondered why one throttle ratio is expected to work for every rider! Whether your a beginner, an expert, riding a 250 2 stroke or a 450, most throttle ratios are basically same! It’s really pretty crazy when you think about it! In fact, eight time National Enduro Champ Mike Lafferty constantly changed his G2 cams depending on terrain and average speeds!
The system includes a stock ratio cam and two progressive cams that incorporate a non-linear ratio between hand throttle rotation and carburetor or throttle body opening. The “pulley”, or as we call it, “cam” pulls the throttle cable as the rider rotates the grip/tube. By altering the conventional, circular shaped cam, a vast improvement in control is achieved. For those who want something quicker, check out our Quick Turn Throttle! All G2 cams for KTM are machined in the USA from, 6061 aluminum or self-lubricating white or black Delrin.
The Throttle Cam System has cam options with reduced radius for the first ½ of throttle rotation, which requires a slightly farther turn to achieve the same carburetor or throttle body opening position as a stock throttle. This slightly longer pull makes a HUGE difference in rider control as the power is rolled on. The system comes with a “100CAM” – same as stock, “200CAM” – starts out 10% smaller than stock and “400CAM” – starts out 20% smaller than stock. The radius of the 200CAM and 400CAM increases or “ramps up” to stock size at ½ throttle to keep overall rotation required to reach full throttle at or near stock rotation.

I bought a 2008 KTM 450 XC-F, and while I love the power and torque, it was almost too much for tighter trails and slippery situations. But in Arizona, you have to have the power because there is also so much sand riding. The 400 cam proved to be the perfect complement for that bike, and it didn’t take anything away from my ability to take the bike to the track and ride motocross where the traction IS good, either. I’ll have one of these on every carbureted bike I own now, no kidding.

Ordered the G2 throttle system for my fuel injected KTM 350, mainly because of the removable end cap as I was installing new handguards, and wanted a clean look with open ended throttle tube and grips. I was impressed when I installed the 200 and 400 cams, as they took all the jerkiness out the initial throttle opening, and made for a very noticably smooth transition from idle-up. Quality machined aluminum piece.

I recently bought the G2 throttle cam kit for use on my 2014 ktm exc 300. Firstly, I was impressed with the speed of shipping to the UK, and when I opened up the kit I was really pleased with the quality of the production – the cams are a good fit and the knurling on the throttle tube mean that you don’t really need to lockwire your grip. Fitting the kit was easy, and the operation of the throttle was smooth – the derlin inserts certainly do the job. The operation of the throttle following fitment is great; it makes the bike far easier to control, and that is why I ordered it in the first place – firmly recommended for technical winter conditions.

Last year I bought a 2008 KTM 990 SM. It performed great but I missed some accuracy in my throttle control midcorner. It tended to overshoot in the corners with the smallest amount of throttle. To fix this I bought the G2 throttle cam. And I have to say, it worked like a charm. Fitting the kit was easy and it fits great. The throttle is much more dosable and the bike is a lot less nervous in corners but it still keeps all of its horsepower. I recommend this big time.

The 200 cam works great on 2014 xcf 350. It is a lot smoother off idle.

Great to improve throttle control and easy to install. Put on one both my KTM 300 XC and Husky TE250.

Just put the tamer on my 2015 KX450F flat tracker, it works great for short tracks, really helps the bike hook up coming out of the turns. Can’t wait to try it on a bigger track. Will definitely be getting this for all my other bikes.

For anyone that has limited wrist movement like myself due to a wrist injury, the quick turn system is the ticket. The throttle is so smooth and easy to control no matter what the conditions are. Makes riding so much easier and comfortable due to the fact that you can stay in good form and posture. No more elbows hanging down near the foot pegs trying to get to wide open throttle. Five stars is really not enough for this. I would give it a “TEN”. Thanks G2 for coming out with such a great product!
Charlie Eller –
Just what I was looking for. Twist reduced just enough that I can get full throttle without my wrist going over center. My 1st day of test was a mix of very tight and slick single track with some wide open sand washes in between. Throttle control just off idle was great and then when it opened up instant full throttle. Build quality is outstanding. Should of made this purchase sooner.

This is one of those “must haves” for my bike. Racing harescrambles and your body is up and over the bars, this helps get to WOT much easier!

great part and great support for the purchase , plus fast shipment = great company

I ordered a similar product made by G2 when I installed it I glued my grip to the throttle tube and the glue seeped through the breather hole at the end of the tube and sat over night like this in the morning when I went to ride I went to grab a handful of throttle and it was completely froze up. Needless to say I ruined the throttle tube removing it. I called G2 to see if there was anything that they can do. First they corrected me and told me the one I ordered was not the best application for my bike as it is a 2-stroke and I needed the quick turn. This product was twice the price of what I originally paid for the first one that I destroyed. G2 told me that this mistake could have been avoided if I didn’t put any glue in the grip before installing it and taping over the hole at the end of the tube.
THEY SEND ME A NEW THROTTLE TUBE FREE OF CHARGE. Not only that but a better one. You guys are awesome!!! And the best part is this is an awesome application for any two stroke bike. THANX G2

Put on a ktm525, its perfect and makes tight trail riding much easier. Worth the money!

Great product and fast shipping. Easy to install and boy did it make a difference in my KTM 500 EXC! Before I replaced the stock throttle cam the bike was just too touchy on throttle. Reaching for the front brake could launch me instantly. With the G2 throttle cam, there’s no longer an issue, but I still have full throttle when I want it with the same amount of twist as before. What a great product! It provides far superior control when you want a little throttle, but grab a handful of throttle and it feels just like stock.

The G2 throttle cam system worked exactly as advertised and made my KTM 250 XC much easier to control for single track use! It will be on all of my bikes from here on!

Purchased this for my 2013 KTM 300XCW. Easy installation and works like a fine watch!

Throttle tamer with 400 cam on 11 Ktm450sxf. Ride Mx just for fun. Absolutely the best upgrade I’ve bought besides suspension. I find jumping way easier to judge, like I’m on my 250f. So for slower heavier riders that need a 450. This is a must have!!!!!
Wolfgang –
The throttle tamer gives me more control on my KTM500EXC. It makes it easier to work on my technical skills as the engine responds less aggressive. At higher speed in heavey terrain the risk of accidential acceleration is banned. Easy to mount, good quality – perfect product!

Works great. Very high quality. Easy on my bad wrist, and gets me to WFO easier than stock!

I purchased this product for my KLX450. Made a huge difference to throttle response at slow speed. Great product does exactly what it says in the video. High quality and would not hesitate to recommended this to any of my friends.

I bought the full kit for my ’17 KX250f in the hope of turning the moto bike into something fun to ride in the woods, and man did it deliver! Took the highly reactive initial hit and made it capable of hooking up in the Pacific NW slime! The 400 cam is THE one to use for wet stuff, 200 is a blast in drier conditions, and I still have std for the track. Perfect tuning for just a few bucks!! Thanks G2.

Got the throttle cam kit for my KTM exc500. I fitted the 0.50 and used it on the ice. It was perfect- exactly what I was looking for- I was able to smoothly modulate throttle in the turn then really launch it through the straights. Can’t wait to try the 400 cam in the woods.
Will be ordering one for my FS450 too.
Great products guys- many thanks

Immediately after installation, there was a lot of play in my throttle, making me think I did something wrong. I quickly realized that I can adjust the play :). Once I did that….. this thing is awesome! I installed new sprockets which geared my bike right where I wanted it, but made the throttle a bit too twitchy at low speeds. This thing calmed it down and made me a much smoother rider on the tough single track!

Great product, have been using these for years with the 400x slow cam to really help find grip when things get a bit slick
