F4i Throttle Pulley...
I remember a write up someone did on swapping the throttle pulley from an F4i onto other bikes (cant remember which ones he said they fit...i think theyre almost universal 
) Anyways, I was wondering if anyone knew anything about this because it was a long time ago I read it. Im trying to find a way to stop my R6 throttle from being so damn twitchy. I have a problem adjusting to BP with it being so twitchy and jumpy.
Any info would help.
Thanks...

Attn R6 riders!!!
I think i may have found out why these bikes are so snappy, I rememebered coming across a thread on thumper talk about a R6 throttle tube install on the drz to make the throttle action shorter. So i went in the garage tonight and did some tinkering. I took the throttle tube off my F4i and the one off the R6 and compared them, the diameter of the "cable pulley", thats what im gonna call it you know the round circle of the throttle tube that the cable rides on, well anyways the diamerter of the R6 tube is about double what the f4i is. What this means is your getting more throttle opening with less throttle input, good for racing bad for stunting. So i took the tube off the f4i and put it on the R6 started her up and bliped the throttle a few times and hmm it sounds like my f4i now (its 4am here so i havent ridden it yet). I just noticed when riding slow wheelies on this bike it was extremly touchy and i think this is the culprit, im gonna ride it tomarrow and let you guys know how it goes but i think im onto somthing here. Or maybe im a dumbass and everyone already knows this its always a possibility....
its always a possibility....
