Throttle mods . . .
I have gone a different route - I bought a quick-action throttle kit (see previous thread "quick action throttle #2") and it makes a hell of a difference.
The throttle is a bit heavier - which is great - and obviously its quicker!!!
The Pro-Twins route is one way to go - but @ £200 - I think you can get better for less - mine cost me £150 + 2 hours of my time.
I bought my bike from Pro-Twins and I think they are really helpful - but sometimes (like most Ducati dealers) a little opinionated.
They modify the standard throttle as follows -
install single-cable 916/748 etc throttle
modify the throttle end cams + springs
You loose the safety features of the standard 2 cable setup
It just sounds too complicated to me
They told me that if I didnt modify the throttle end cams and springs it would be too too heavy and that they had spent hours and hours of development on their mod - which is probably OK but I think its flawed - safety wise anyway!
I didnt bother and I think its perfect!!!
and £50 cheaper - if anyone wants the mod done - I will do it - less than 2 hours start to finish - no worries.
