I am looking to get a Motion Pro Revolver and need to get the cable lengths, anybody know this so I don't have to pull the bike apart to measure?

Thanks guys!

What's a "Motion Pro Revolver" and are you looking for R, CR clubman or CR highbar cable info? I have clubman CR I could measure.

Here is a link to the revolver.

I need lenths for the standard R cables.

I took a couple pictures of the cables off my 08 R.

Hope these help.
Nothing was moved for all 3 pictures so you can calculate the sizes as needed.
Overall length is 38 3/4", if it's not not that clear.


I am also interested in getting a different turn rate throttle so let me know how your project turns out.

Save your money on the Motion Pro. They don't support our bikes. I tried this route already. They need lengths, but they also need wire vs cable lengths, and for both cables, then they want another $100 to make them.

What are you trying to do? Just get a quick-turn throttle?

I'm using the G2 tamer, but with an X50 (I think) cam. It's about 10% faster than stock, and NO annoying "ramp" up -- just a good old fashioned quick turn that gets you where you want to be much faster.

Thanks for the pics 99buellx1, they are exactly what I needed.

Jdugger, I spoke with Motion pro and they are custom making me a kit. It is only $175 so $20 more then normal.

I want the revolver for a few reasons but one of the main reasons is because I installed a Brembo RCS19 and I can't get the lever to angle down far enough because the stock throttle cables are in the way. So with the lever too high it hits the fairing stay when the bars are turned to the left.

2006 and newer Yamaha R6 came with a "quick turn" (1/6 turn) throttle tube - don't know if it'll work on the 1125....???
here's link with some good pix on the upgrade:

Cheap 1125R quick throttle:
R1 throttle $6, and take a dremmel to it.
Done

Has anyone done the 1125/R1 throttle setup from motion pro? I'm also having cable clearance issues.
