I tried a Quick action throttle for my 748 from these guys www.extremebykesportz.co.uk

And even fitted correctly with the shortest action cam it was actually a longer throw on the twist than my standard Ducati one! So i sent it back to them and got a refund...

you dont really need one it only has around a 65 degree action as std, its the 749 999 that need them they turn 90 degrees as std

Hi, i fitted a quick action cam to the throttle bodies, on my 851/916sp (and some) Man it was like a trigger!...wheelspins hairey momments....a fcuking handfull, too much for me on the road!....on or off and very little in between, however for the track it's probably "O.K."......1st guy with £25 buys it, it cost me £40 to get it over from the States, i'll pay the postage.....I'm not a Numpty having raced TZ's, etc but am now getting to old for that much excitment! if no one wants it i'll try it again in the summer.

the prob with some of the se quick throttles (proably like what you experianced Mr R ) is that they also accellerate the first part (say 40%) of the throttle opening, this will make it difficult to ride!

what one needs is one that is made to accellerate the opening in the latter part of the throttle opening.
