Re the throttle Play, have any other owners used the throttle spacer kits on one of these and if so, any good?
Yes Ill do that first but throttle tube feels sloppy anyway - a bit low rent. I just ordered a Sato quick action throttle tube. https://www.orientexpress.com/p-8595-sato-racing-throttle-tube.aspx With the amount of torque on hand I prefer to get the throttle action at initial opening as good as i can get it. The old RSVR I had was so snatchy on initial opening it contributed to a track day crash i had - it unloaded the front mid corner and down I went like a bag of spuds...
Here you go. I always keep a spare plate or 2 for those rainy days. 19010243A if it's been superceeded, your dealer will be able to reference the new part number.
