Handlebars, hand controls and cables may be altered or replaced (does not include brake master cylinder) from those fitted to the homologated motorcycle.

That is way too subjective! Even the differences between laptimes on identical bikes (one with a QA throttle and one without) with the same rider couldn't be totally attributed the the throttle!

What I found looking at my logger is that I got to 100% throttle sooner on the exits of some corners (lefts actually), purely because I didn't have to re-grip the throttle which was great. However, I also found that it completely screwed my starts as you have to be that much more careful not to launch the front! That did take getting use to.

Yes Luke i totally agreee with that, and thanks for the head up on the start issue ! I thought that would have to be done more carefully.
I know ive done some sh*te starts with a std throttle !!!!

Interested in getting one for my 2003 SV650s, is there a table of which year R6 tubes fit which SV? Or are they all the same?

Cheers !

my sv is a K6 and the R6 throttle was listed as a 2005 throttle, thats all i know pal !

Thanks sv650racer that was the info i was after cheers leon.
