Quick turn throttles??

I know other bike brands install the r6 throttle tube to get the 1/6 turn with some slight mods but what does r6 owners do to get a quicker turn to wot? Is stock throttle good enough? Motion pro throttle kits? What do you guys do?

Be careful if you buy a motion pro. It isn't a bike specific kit, so some serious modifications may be required.

Serious mods? Only thing I could imagine is maybe longer throttle cables but I doubt that to. I have a feeling if it required mods I would have heard about it, but its possible I reckon

Is it PVC or zip tie mods?

Can u explain? the only bike specific on the motion pro would be the cables as far as I can tell. I've had the motion pro on my previous gixxer and it worked flawlessly but was wondering since the biggest cam it came with is 50 mm, how big of a difference would it be from the stock r6 1/6 housing?

You must not be refering to the MP Revolver kit as it is a direct bolt on.

Re: Quick turn throttles??

90 percent sure they are bike specific. They make you choose your model when you buy them, and, the kit, comes with new cables. If that's the route you go.

Re: Quick turn throttles??

I appreciate it but I'm scared a mod like that will malfunction. I was looking at the yoyodyne kits (euro racing) but read some people had issues with fraying cables due to its metal cams. I wanted to use an r6 throttle tube on my 09zx6r but couldn't find anyone online that has experiment with it yet. Just curious if the r6 guys uses other options asides from what have been mentioned
