How do I convert 749r throttle to 916 style 1/4 turn ?

After riding a mixture of 749 & 999 over the last 3 and a bit years I have now found the standard throttle a pain. All seemed OK until a track day yesterday at Mallory when the 3/4 turn throttle became a hinderance.

So, what do I need to convert the standard 749r throttle to a 916 style single cable throttle with 1/4 (ish) turn ?

I guess throttle housings, and twist.

Can I use a standard cable from the 749 or do I need a 916 cable ?

Do I need to add any springs, or similar, to close the throttle or will the standard return srpings be OK ?

Are there other points I need to watch for ?

Does any one have the parts I need, or, should I be scouring flea bay ?
