So, I purchased at throttle body which belongs to a 2009 ZXR6 and as they look identical, I didn't give it a second thought till now. So, my question is there any way that I could make one working throttle body into one. Hence, my original throttle body it's working but it's missing the upper butterflies. hi, I'm sure the mechanic of the person who I bought the bike from, remove them for whatever reason. Now looking at them both they do have differences. Please advise. I will include picture pictures of both, so you have a better idea what I'm working with.

Hey buddy. Read some months ago that removing secondary butterflies will give you more power (i don't believe that s&$t, there are there, for a reason) maybe that's why previous mechanic removed it. Although i never had a 09 throttle bodies assembly in my hands, i believe that is a correct and easy swap. As i can see, fuel rail is different, just swap it, but keep your old injectors. Keep your old baro and map sensor too. As for tps if fitting is different, use your old fitting (search at workshop manuals of both to identify which wire is 5v, signal and ground) Use same technique for secondary butterflies fitting too. Wish to live near you, would fix in 10 minutes ...

Well, I wish that you would live close to me as well, as we would have run into an issue. Before I read this, I figured as such. I remove the butterflies, Added them to my original throttle body. During the process. I come to learn that the bar that holds the butterflies was bent. Probably the reason why the genius that took them off in the first place did not include or left installed and at least disconnect the TPS. I knew it was missing I just figured would use the one from the purchased throttle body. picture below. so on that note, great Scott Batman!! We will not be going for a ride anytime soon. Thought? Lol

That's why i told you to use the complete tb assembly you bought. Would be easier to swap sensors and fuel rail. What are you gonna do now?

I couldn't use the new one because the same TPS that's missing from mine "on the left side of the TB" the new one is housed in the middle of the unit. Unless you are seeing something that I am failing to see. take a close look at the pictures. BTW, thank you for the brainstorm session. really appreciate it.

Secondary butterflies are there for noise and pollution regs. An ecu flash opens them up early or you can just remove them for a more efficient and powerful motor.
