Quick action throttle
#4

Apparently an R6 throttle tube has a larger cable drum, hence pulls more cable than a standard Gen 1 "Thou" throttle tube, not as aggressive as a full on quick action but better than a "Thou" (apparently) ?
I'm considering getting one for mine.
Not sure if throttle housing will need some mods but it's been done before so i guess all the info is on web somewhere.


Cheap enough new, loads on Fleabay.

Interesting. I have small hands and bad wrist pains from a few broken wrists as a kid so a shorter action would suit me. I suppose the aggressiveness could be tuned out with getting used to it like most things. I'll have to look into the R6 option. Thanks
