throttle question

i looped the beast and cracked the throttle tube and broke off the throttle side bar end. now the bike feels much more touchy. i can't maintain balance point like i used to because the slightest touch of the throttle and it goes behind BP then i correct with either the throttle or the brake and it brings it down too much, then i go back behind BP and so on... i thought maybe i was just afraid of looping again so my throttle control got sketchy, but i'm really not afraid of looping it cause i didn't get hurt or fvck up anything major when i did it. its a 1000rr and it is known to be touchy, which i had gotten used to, but now it feels danm near imposible to control. so my question is would a cracked throttle tube and a missing bar end make the throttle extra sensitive???

Re: throttle question

If it being cracked makes the throttle stickier, the yes.
Try (with the bike turned off) squeezing the throttle tightly and turn it back and forth. If it feels sticky at all, then fix it.
