  3. Re the throttle Play, have any other owners used the throttle spacer kits on one of these and if so, any good?

     
  4. I have a quick action throttle on mine. It's vicious.

  7. Yes Ill do that first but throttle tube feels sloppy anyway - a bit low rent. I just ordered a Sato quick action throttle tube.

    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...
