quick throttle

[evoluzione]

i don't know if this has been previously covered but the throttle used on the le mans is convertible to a quicker ratio. the same unit is used on several bimota and actually comes from a dirt bike.

 

to back up, i noticed that the throttle response felt "lagging" - it took more input than what i was used to feeling. this is due to the ratio used in the throttle housing. if you disassemble the throttle housing, you will find a white disk that pulls the cable. it is shipped in the "endro" mode meaning it is a slow take-up but speeds up as you twist it further. if you slide the disk off and reverse it, it gives you "motocross" mode which is linear and requires less total rotation.

 

so, if you would prefer a quicker, more linear throttle, just flip the disk around. it only takes about 10-15 minutes and if you don't like it just flip it back.
