Default R6 throttle tube mod - Pointy?

I managed to snap my throttle tube when fitting some heated grips. Instead of replacing it with an SV throttle tube, I was thinking of getting the R6 throttle tube instead. I very rarely use full throttle (maybe that's a good thing?) mainly because it's uncomfortable twisting my wrist right the way back just to get there.

I have a K6 pointy. Any tips or anything I should know? Worth doing etc?

Well it will go on your one but can jam up and that you don't want.

^ Thanks. I think I'll give it a miss. I was looking more for a cheap option but there's no way I'm risking the throttle getting stuck.
