Carpmart Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 A vague question, with a flat out answer which didn't help me in the slightest to know what is going on....! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyknight Posted March 9, 2015 Author Share Posted March 9, 2015 hahahaha. SO a have a new horn to use on new servo and throttle linkage has old plastic horn still on it. I've tried twisting it, bending it and everything in between but i can;t get the horn off the linkage. It can't be this hard surely! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOFX Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 A flat screwdriver. Put it between the servo & horn & lever the horn off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyknight Posted March 9, 2015 Author Share Posted March 9, 2015 (edited) A flat screwdriver. Put it between the servo & horn & lever the horn off. That's the easy bit, it's gettign the horn off the throttle linkage I'm after. Thanks for replying though! Flatout has given me a method to try so I'll give that a whirl when i get home from work.

DannyP Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 It's not just screwed into the horn? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyknight Posted March 9, 2015 Author Share Posted March 9, 2015 nah it goes through in like an s bend in the rod but the bend is extremely tight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordanp Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 theres a special way i cant remember it form memory but it has something to do with moving the horn at the same time as twisting it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flatout! Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 (edited) Iv sent him a video of me doing what i said at the top, it comes straight off no bother, pull the horn in line with the bar, it will only go one way then lift it and you'll ear a click, first bend, and then its off the second bend, lol! Its not difficult, its just the same as a few throttle linkages that was on some old bikes very similar anyways Servo horn removel: this is a baja im working on at the minute, its not mine!

Martyn_T Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 I've managed to get mine off by manoeuvring it around like those old toys with the hoop and the electric wire - just keep being patient with it and it comes off eventually when all the angles are just right. ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
