As a complete numpty could someone tell me how hard it would be to fit ( i have the workshop manual and only today changed my rear brake pads but its been a VERY long time since i was in any way handy with a spanner !)

Unless Pro-Twins have changed their throttle mod, they simply replace the throttle on the 749/999 with one off a 996, hence the single cable. It also requires a longer cable. I believe the parts are approx £70. The rest is labour.
