What's wrong?
The throttle wire on 2023 Cfmoto IBEX800-S and IBEX800-T motorcycles links the throttle grip to the throttle system that controls engine response. When the rider rolls on the throttle, the wire has to move freely as the handlebars turn and as the motorcycle vibrates during normal riding. It needs a smooth path with enough slack to avoid being pinched or stretched.
On affected motorcycles, three rubber clasps that hold the throttle wire are too tight or poorly positioned. During steering maneuvers, those clasps force the wire into an excessive bend and stretch it. That stress can break the wire, resulting in loss of throttle response, limited engine RPM, or an engine stall.
The warning sign is visual. An inspection near the rubber clasp can show excessive bending in the throttle wire before it breaks.
Who's affected?
Covers the IBEX800-S and IBEX800-T versions, both tied to the throttle wire.

What's the safety risk?
An engine stall increases the risk of a crash. The throttle wire can show excessive bending near the rubber clasp during a visual inspection, so treat that finding as a reason to stop riding and call a dealer. Repair is free at any franchised Cfmoto dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2023 Cfmoto IBEX800-S or IBEX800-T is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Cfmoto dealer to schedule the free throttle-wire rerouting and rubber-clamp repositioning that addresses the bending throttle wire.
- Bring the recall notice if Cfmoto mailed one, or reference recall number 24V609 when you call.
- Ride cautiously until the repair is complete. If throttle response changes or the engine stalls, stop in a safe place and call the dealer before riding again.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Cfmoto technician repositions the rubber clamps and reroutes the throttle wire so it does not bend excessively. The recall repair is free, and parts and labor are covered. If you already paid out of pocket for a throttle wire or related throttle response repair before the recall notice, Cfmoto's general reimbursement plan is on file. Ask the service desk how to submit repair documentation under that plan.
