Throttle setup question
« on: November 25, 2013, 03:26:31 PM »
When I set up my throttle I notice that my wrist twists all the way back and it's no where near the end of the throttle travel (the point in which the throttle stops).... Is there anything I can do about this or is this normal

I think it's normal. I have the same problem. I find using fatter grips helps, although in theory it means you have to turn further for the same result it is definitely easier on the wrists.

Hmm yeah it sorta sucks because the real power on the cb550 doesn't really show up unless it's in the upper range of rpm which for my case is a majority of my wrist twist
