| Re: HRC 1/6TH THROTTLE HSG I only ran a couple track days before switching it out, but the install isn't too hard. My install was easier due to replacing the airbox at the same time, so the throttle bodies were disconnected at the same time. I've done the same mod on my SV650 and it's a great improvement for that bike and was fairly noticeable. |

 | Re: HRC 1/6TH THROTTLE HSG Not a major pain to install and really nice to have on the track. Not sure I would want it on the road though.

| Re: HRC 1/6TH THROTTLE HSG It's twitchy on bumpy roads but I like it on the street. If you are doing trackdays or racing it is a MUST!!! Shifting your hand position around on the street isn't a big deal because how often are you 'really' transitioning from closed to WFO? But on the track, you do this several times per lap. I'd recomend it. |
