Is Throttle cable lubrication possible on '15 ST-S?

[mehcoib]

hello,

I tried to lubricate the throttle cable of my '15 ST-S Spyder... I even bought the recommanded tool to do it correctly, but... it seems it's sealed??

Am I wrong? Here is the picture of what I got, I haven't been able to go further...

Did I do something wrong or is it just not possible (useful?) to lubricate throttle cable of some Spyder models?

Thanks for you help.

Curious...

You probably have the fly by wire throttle and there is no cable to lube. :dontknow: Are you having a problem ..? If binding check grip and bar ends. :thumbup:

I could be wrong about this, but I don't think Spyders use throttle cables. It's all electronic controls

not all
think ‘13 & up are all fly by wire electronic control :dontknow: quick call to dealer or BRP should get good answer.

Photo looks like a fly by wire system to me. I don't see a cable.

I ride a 2013 ST-S. It is fly by wire.
The throttle rotation and return are controlled by a spring in the end of the grip.
Its a bugger to install and get set correctly.
Good luck.

thanks for your replies!

No I have no problem with the throttle, I just tought it might be appropriate to lubricate that cable before it actually becomes a problem!
