Quick Action throttle

Is it worth it?

If so does any one know where I can get one for a 600ss from? Google fails me

Cheers

I think the usual choice is between Domino and Venhill

That's great! thanks for the link

Last question!

How do I know which one of those I can use? I know nothing of these things.

I assume I would need to get a throttle and cables?

I used 356203 on the advice of Birthday boy Skids. That uses the original cable and ditched the other one - sp kust one cable now. This advice is for a 620 ss. The grey beards and dd minds will advise which is best for the 600cc bikes.

IMO unless you have tonnes of BHP on tap a quick action is not really of any advantage on a DD bike. As Phil & Paul said standard is the way to go. Not only the cost but also the availablity as the throttle housing is one of the first things that can disintergrate in a spill.

Ditch the closing cable as it's really not needed - those springs will have your fingers off anyway!

You can then go to a single cable throttle, and use a 916 sized one (62º iirc) or get the one from Red Racing Parts (356203) which is actually the same as the 916 one but is branded Domino instead of being OEM

The standard SS one is 90º so it's a twist and a half to get full throttle! Once I'd swapped over I always found the throttle much easier to use.
