Preparation: Confirm TPS compatibility (e.g., Honda CRF450R, Yamaha YZF-R1) and bolt size (M5 or M6). Gather protection cover, M5 or M6 bolts, 4mm Allen key, torque wrench, and thread locker.
Positioning: Locate the TPS on the throttle body, typically near the throttle valve or fuel injection system. Remove the OEM plastic cover (if present) by loosening existing bolts with a 4mm Allen key, retaining one bolt to maintain TPS alignment, as recommended for TPS guards.
Securing: Apply thread locker to the M5 or M6 bolts. Align the protection cover over the TPS, ensuring full coverage and no interference with wiring or throttle linkage. Tighten bolts to 5-7 ft-lbs with a torque wrench in a cross pattern, avoiding over-tightening to prevent thread damage.
Final Check: Verify the cover is secure and doesn’t obstruct throttle operation. Start the engine and test throttle response at idle and full range, ensuring no binding. Re-torque bolts after 50 miles or one race session. Carry spare bolts for roadside repairs.
Maintenance Tips
Inspect for bolt looseness, corrosion, or impact damage every 500 miles or 20 race hours, cleaning with a mild solvent and brush. Reapply thread locker and re-torque bolts monthly, replacing the cover if cracked or deformed, typically after 800-1200 hours. Store spares in a dry case to prevent corrosion, matching Luckyway’s component advice. For off-road use, check cover integrity after heavy trail rides to ensure TPS protection, and avoid using oversized bolts to prevent thread stripping.
