The Honda 17853-VF9-A11 Right Throttle Lever Grip is a genuine OEM replacement designed for UMK422 and UMK431 trimmers. Sourced directly from Honda, this component matches the original in fit and form, ensuring the throttle lever assembly operates exactly as it did from the factory. Check your trimmer's serial number against the fitment table to confirm this is the correct part for your unit before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine Honda OEM — manufactured to Honda's original specification, so the grip seats and functions on the throttle lever assembly without modification
- Correct Throttle Response — a worn or damaged grip compromises operator control over engine speed; this replacement restores confident, consistent throttle operation
- Trimmer-Specific Fitment — designed for UMK422 and UMK431 trimmers; verify your serial number against the fitment table, as Honda updates part numbers at production breaks
The right throttle lever grip is the operator's direct point of contact with the trimmer's throttle control. It houses and protects the throttle lever mechanism on the right handle, allowing the operator to smoothly regulate engine speed during cutting. When the grip cracks, tears, or wears through, throttle input becomes imprecise and the handle uncomfortable to use — replacing it restores full control and keeps the trimmer running at the speed the job demands.
