9.73Throttle grip
100783-10
The installed throttle grip twists opens uniformly (linear) over the entire range of the
throttle valve.
The throttle grip supplied does not open the throttle valves as widely at the same angle
lower down the rev range. This makes the throttle response in the lower rev range less
aggressive and can fed in more progressively.
By installing the corresponding throttle grip the throttle response can be set to suit your
personal riding style / according to the purpose.
