1/4 turn throttle.


I want one for my KTM.

all i found so far (for a reasonable price) is this:
G2 Ergonomics Twin Cam System


Has anyone used one of these and found one of the cams gets you at least close to a 1/4 turn throttle response?

Yes, they are. As are the G2 throttles. Go to redracing and get a domino 50 degree throttle It's THE BOMB!

You're racing a motard. Just wire the throttle to an on/off switch.

yeah, stock on alot of bikes is right around a 90deg turn. I've put in inserts that give me 72deg and 65deg. I actually would have liked something in between those two, but I have gone with the 65 and stuck with it. Its great having the whole motor available with the shorter throw.

Paul, is yours the 52 degree throw or 66? I didn't think it was only 52 degrees of throw, but i reognize the grips and blue anodized screws.

**also, do we need the 66mm stroke one? couldn't I just measure the slide travel to find this out?

Tyler bought the 52, I bought the 66. In reality, the 66 was 90 degrees, and the 52 was like 66. I have the 52 on my bike right now. It's the go. I believe I'm using a KX85 throttle cable with a slight mod at both ends. Stock cable obviously won't work with a bigger cam.
