How much and where from for R1throttle tube. Also will it the K3 if so which yaer R1. Cheers Chris SVK3

See above - and yes it'll fit the K3.

Does it come with instructions :?: :oops:

Blimey, and I thought the SV had a quick-action throttle to begin with. I have an old British bike as well, with an Amal carb. Now that most definitely needs you to grab another handfull!

No, but its really easy, you'll manage - all the throttle slider is is a cylinder with the throttle cable wraped round it.

Take the bar end off. At the other end of the grip is where the throttle cable wraps round the slider - it's covered by an aluminium case in two parts, held together by two screws. Undo them, take the case off and unwrap the cables. The slider will now slide off the bar, replace with the new one.

chazzyb - how quick is a quick action throttle? :wink: As I understand it the SV comes with a 1/4 turn slider... replacing with the larger diameter R1 slider makes it 1/5 turn.

what year R1

You sure?
I'm off work t'morow so might swing past a breakers and see if they've got one.

Cheers Mate,
I'll give a Yami dealer a call tomorrow and see if I can get a price. The 1/5 can insert is about £25- so if it's cheaper......
