Throttles

How does a throttle work?

A throttle is an essential part of your scooter or moped that controls the speed of your vehicle. Turning the throttle adjusts the amount of fuel going to the engine, allowing you to increase or decrease speed. It is connected to your vehicle's carburetor or fuel injection system and plays a crucial role in controlling engine performance.

Smooth acceleration

With a properly functioning throttle, you can accelerate smoothly and easily adjust the speed of your scooter or moped to different driving conditions. It provides responsive and precise control of your vehicle, which is essential for a safe and comfortable driving experience.

Comfortable driving experience

An ergonomically designed throttle lever contributes to a comfortable driving experience. The handle should be easy to operate and fit well in the hand, so that you can make longer journeys without fatigue.

What should you do if your gas gets stuck?

It can happen that the gas on your scooter or moped gets stuck, which can be dangerous while driving. If this happens, it is important to remain calm and follow these steps:

Keep calm

Try to stay calm and avoid panic. Panic can lead to unintentional hard braking or other dangerous maneuvers.

Brakes

Use the brakes to reduce the speed of your vehicle. Apply the brakes gradually and avoid braking abruptly to avoid losing control.

Switch off engine

Turn off the engine by turning the ignition key to the "off" position. This will stop the fuel supply to the engine and release the accelerator.

How expensive is a throttle?

The price of a throttle can vary depending on the brand, quality and type of vehicle it is intended for. At Zandri we offer a wide range of throttles at affordable prices, so you can easily find a replacement that suits your budget and needs.
