Has anybody succesfully fitted a different throttle assembly and cables ?

Im running custom yokes and clip-ons, and with a radial master cylinder im struggling to get the cables and lines in the correct position.

Would be better if the cables came out the top like on some of the jap bikes, rather than out the bottom as they just clash with the MC banjo.

I rotate my stock throttle assembly around so avoid the conflict. It puts the start button a "little low", but it's totally usable.

Let me know if you need a pic or two.

Me too - almost to the point that the starter switch will contact the frame at right lock...

How is it ? That's what I've just bought, not used it yet. The ratio adjuster screw was a bit disappointing for the price ?

Is there 3 clicks 18 19 20 or is it just 2 clicks 18 or 20 ?

I initially had it set at 'full' setting (20 ish?), but ended backing off to about half setting to get the feel I wanted. What I like about it IS the adjustability.

I was all set to buy this fully adjustable MC

http://www.bikersdiscountstore.co.uk/accossato-bra ke-clutch/accossato/accossato-prs2-adjustable-brak e-master-cylinder-pd-21.php

Had a demo and the quality was great, but slightly fiddly to adjust the ratio's, had to pop off a cir clip and spin a small alloy block round, I had fears of dropping it in the road one day and losing parts, so I went with the brembo.
