motion pro 01-1040 throttle sleeve
« on: April 03, 2018, 02:18:19 PM »
first t-shirt riding weather of the year today here in middle tennessee.  installed a motion pro 01-1040 throttle sleeve the other night and was able to enjoy it today.  don't have to re-grip to access full throttle. 

this has been covered before just wanted to bring it up again for those who still have the stock type sleeve.  it's a great $12 upgrade.   

a few folks have used a whittled piece of pvc glued in to achieve the same result.

I'm also enjoying the warmer days lately here in middle TN.  So does that throttle tube give you a shorter turn to reach full throttle that the stock tube?

Yes that is exactly it. It is from an R6, I believe?
