i finally got a chance to take out my 1125cr for the first time, excellent bike, handles great. there is one problem i am having, its the throttle. i dont kno if i have to get used to the fuel injection system or what, also i do not like how long it is, is there anyway of shortening the throttle, i have to twist litterally my whole arm, i would like to make it more snappy, any suggestions...?
 
Humans can be good at adapting if they really want to.

And by adapting, I mean both, you adapting to the bike...or adapting your own ideas to the bike.

One thing most people have but hardly ever use (or learn how to use)..."ingenuity".

There's two ideas for ya.

Yes. There is some information floating around on using a Yamaha throttle tube to change the throttle ratio. Cycle Pirates sells (which I carry) an entirely new throttle assembly with cams in it to adjust the range of throttle motion. As I recall there were a few other companies offering similar products.

I had the same issue while at the drag strip. I found I was not going full throttle as my arms range of motion was shorter than the bikes. I had to grab a big handful of throttle with my elbow way forward. This isn't an issue at the drag strip but would not work well on the street.

The lowest mark indicates closed throttle, the second mark indicates my full range of motion, the third mark is wide open throttle.

Puzzled,

Is this a self made dead-man-switch?

What is it you fixed to our engine cut-off switch?
 
Yes Cycle Pirates is good for many parts. Good stuff to know, quite a good trick cause a frend of mine has complained of something like that as well. I think I'll have him check this out. AND WHO IS amy01? please stick to the subject matter a hand. Buell Bikes and medium porn. [smirk]

If a mod/admin is needed for the two 1125 sections I'll lend a hand (I'm a mod and admin on a couple of boards).
