    The play in the cable is the problem and that can be adjusted, it is in the user manual and pretty easy to do. Also free.

    Good one to throw out on the ol'youtube! Will have to tell my dad about this since it seems to bug him so much; I've just gotten used to mine

      I couldn't stand it, give it a try, you might like it too. If ya don't it's real easy to just cut back off!

    good mod. Doug is my faaaaavvvorite.

  • @alteredstateskustom
    @alteredstateskustom Před 7 lety

    nice mod!
    Doug could you remove the bushing all together and shorten the cable at the throttle body?

    • @SXSBlog
      @SXSBlog  Před 7 lety +1

      My GUESS is that there isn't enough adjustment available for that, but I haven't tried it. This is defintely the "quick and dirty" fix, certainly a number of more elegant solutions...lol

    What brand zip tie do you recommend? Can i just swing by Harbor Freight?

    • @SXSBlog
      @SXSBlog  Před 7 lety +15

      Use code SXSBLOG @ Harbor Freight for a 0% discount on any "sure to break if you try to tighten" zip ties.

    Is this mod reliable Doug? Wont leave me stranded will it? I hate the dead pedal area so bad!

    • @SXSBlog
      @SXSBlog  Před 6 lety +1

      This isn't the YamiGod (the person formerly known as Doug) but worst case is what you'll break the zip ties and the pedal will go back to it's normal deadness.

    • @moto420television5
      @moto420television5 Před 6 lety

      Thanks Guys! And yes Doug is for sure YamiGod!

    Hay Doug is the yxz better than the maverick

    • @SXSBlog
      @SXSBlog  Před 7 lety

      Doug's hair says yes. I'm unsure about the rest of him.

    • @dougbutterfield5505
      @dougbutterfield5505 Před 7 lety +3

      There have been strong points and weaknesses to both, so it's hard to say which is "better". I can tell you I've had a ton of fun with both of them. When we trail ride and hit the dunes I like the YXZ more, when we go to Rocks and Valleys and get into the mud I wish I still had the Maverick. All about where you ride!

      @nickthuringer310 Před 7 lety +1

      Ok thanks

      Try out the paddle shifter one, i got some seat time in the new 2018, it has some typical draw back, but seem that the paddle shifter has taken out most of the concern on clutch burning due to improper slipping and half clutching Still needs springs replaced or backed off and it is still a rough ride. .
