BMW Motorcycle Throttle Valve And Actuators

As you know, your motorcycle features a throttle. Interestingly enough, the throttle doesn't control the amount of fuel that flows to the engine. Instead, it manages the flow of air, which in turn controls the amount of fuel your engine consumes as part of the combustion process.

How it works is simple. As you twist, or open, the throttle, the throttle valve opens to allow more air to enter. As the air speed increases, the air pressure decreases. That in turn pulls fuel up and into the engine's cylinder head. By helping to optimize the mixture of air and fuel, your throttle valve is directly responsible for your engine's prime performance.

How to Spot Bad Throttle Valves and Actuators

Unfortunately, even the best throttle parts can fail over time. Symptoms include irregular idling speeds, reduced fuel efficiency, hesitation in response, and even a stalling engine. All indicate a need to examine your system to determine what's gone wrong.
