Quick Review of G2 Throttle Tamer

I just installed a G2 Throttle Tamer tube on my dl1k7. My bike has the typical jerky on/off throttle that plagues these bikes.

Installs same as factory tube, so very easy. I do wish the g2 throttle tube had the collar on the inner side like the factory tube does, but not a big deal. I will say the outer delrin bushing was a slightly loose fit on my protaper bars, but after a test ride it didnt bother me.

Now, I am very aware of the apparent controversy of throttle tamers. I read almost entirely great reviews from those that actually tried them, so I went for it. I am not interested in hearing people make claims that it's a rider technique problem etc etc.

Yes in fact it did work just like its supposed to! Small throttle opening control is much much better and the jerky condition is 80% better. Before this, all necessary adjustments were made to see if this purchase could be avoided. Cables, TPS, TBS, chain, and extra fuel via PC5.

While I do believe there could be improvement hiding with further PC5 tuning, its improved enough where I would no longer call it a problem with the bike, but instead a characteristic if that makes sense.

Yes the throttle must turn a bit more for WOT, but it doesn't bother me. So if other gen 1 owners are looking for improvement, yes this helps.
