Is there an easy way out there to get a reduced throttle twist? On my SV650, it was as easy as swapping the stock throttle tube for an R6 throttle tube. Has anyone tried similar tubes with any success? How about a direct swap throttle cam swap?

Thanks!

I've seen plastic inserts that attach to the throttle tube and change the cam profile of the throttle tube.

I've never heard of a simple throttle tube swap though.

Interesting, I thought of modifying the stock tube, but didn't get that far. You know where I can get some of these inserts? Do you know anyone who has used them?

Here is a place that sells them. There are of course other places that sell similar items and may be cheaper.

This is what I found on a quick search: www.doublezracing.com/
