Lectron 46 HELP
I was having an issue with that and I spoke with the guy that sold it to me, the suction things is pretty well cured now.
1. Sand the slide
2. make sure it is adjusted correctly (metering rod, idle, and mixture screw.)
Remember this golden rule:
When adjusting the idle, you need to be adjusting it with the machine at operating temperature, to do this right you'll need to go out and ride it for about 30 minutes then come back and adjust the idle & air / fuel mixture screw.

I just rode the track today with my 720 and the 46HV. I was doing damn good airing the thing out and all but what really hampered me to my full potential and at times almost dangerous was the thumb throttle effort was absolutely KILLING me.
I know my cable is too long an hence it might be binding up a bit under the tank. I'm going to order another one but at certain times I was using my entire arm to push that thumb throttle. It's not so bad in the dunes but on a track where you vary the thumb throttle especially for setting up big air, you need to hammer it before flight, and gun it when you land. Iwas giving a YFZ450 a good run until my thumb fatigued.
Blackhawk where did you get your cable from? I can order it from Terry Cable but its about 2 weeks to get here.
The thing is tomorrow I'm going to anothe track.

Entomber,
I got my cable directly from Eric. With my 90 degree bend, I think the cable became about 1/4" - 1/2" too long so I made a small plastic blank to fit inside of the big adjustment screw on my Moose throttle to take up just a little slack which worked perfectly to ive me more adjustment room.
huskerjim,
I'm not sure what part number you are referring to? Are you looking for a part number for the Thumb throttle? If so you'll need to order either the Terry Cable Billet Thumb Throttle or the Moose Billet Thumb Throttle and then get a cable of the correct size for your application. (I have no clue what the correct size is or how to order up a custom cable.)
I think it would be a bad idea to get it chromed, I know chrome plating is thin but the slide is a precision machined part and that extra thickness in the wrong spot could potentially screw up your operation or not allow you to get full potential out of the carburetor.
I have never polished anything but I was told I could use some very fine grit sand paper and that should help with the action so that the slide was smooth (that is the key here, smooth, not shiny.)

Don't use the factory throttle, it doesn't have enough movement to open a large carburetor. To use it you have to cut a hole in the side & that is just not something I like the idea of. In some environments it is not a problem others it will kill you. If you are going to use crazy fine grit sandpaper just be sure to work your way up to that, I don't think I've ever heard of 3000 grit paper.I though 750 - 1000 was pretty fine...
