2008 * A new progressive throttle cam and new throttle cables provide smoother throttle input from stops, and less rotation to full throttle. How much reduction? Cam on the throttle tube or throttle body? |

1/4 turn what the heck where they PRE 08 They sell inserts for throttle tubes that will make take your bike from 1/4 reduces it to 1/5 & 1/6 turn... 1/5 is a 20% reduction.. *
*Which throttle tubes are closet to buells? *How much Gain is the new Cam on the throttle body? I broke out the manual it's only a lock nut, looks pretty straight forward.. |

i have never had a problem with my xb's, but i am wanting to shorten up the throttle throw on my 1125. seems like i keep twisting it forever and even have to reposition my hand if i want to be able to hit full throttle easily. |

The difference in the 08 is on the throttle body instead of the throttle tube. |

This guy makes one for a ZX-10 throttle tube just eying it except for the color the buell throttle tube looks the same or pretty darn close. http://www.doublezracing.com/ http://zx-10r.net/forum/showthread.php?t=19436 Without Insert
