I have my TLR geared right now at stock in the front, 3 up in the rear. The front *will* come up very easily with almost any amount of throttle up through 3rd gear. You better have a few changes of underwear handy. You'll need them.

I've dropped about 30-40 lbs off of my bike, thanks to liberal use of magnesium and titanium. You'll be amazed at the difference it will make. Even more so if you'd buy some damn magnesium wheels.

A lot of gsxr and honda guys use stock r1/r6 throttle tubes. Ought to work on the tlr as well and its like $15

It's about damn time I learned throttle control...

I am down for some light wheels, but there is no way in hell I'm even close to ready to drop the cheddar... Still looking for that sweet deal where some guy crashed his race bike, then his wife took it in the divorce, and she doesn't know what Marchesini or Ohlins means...

It does, but you can also hack a peice of $0.10 PVC pipe and make your own insert... which is what I plan on doing...

Yeah, I have some reservations about using a zip tie... either way, it's cheap and effective...

[dReWpY]

i did the zip tye to the zx6, worked fine, for the rc i sucked it up and ordered a HRC throttle tube
