Buy a Yamaha R6 one £10

Its one of the best cheap mods as it makes it a quick action throttle

For the Curvy model, not sure about a pointy?

You've got to take it off to replace it, you need to split the switch gear, 2 or 3 screws underneath, disconnect the cables take off the old one & replace with the new one

If it isn't an R6 one, I'd say don't bother. The R6 throttle tube is the cheapest & best upgrade by far.

Not wishing to dis your OEM tube mind
