Throttle Tamer, didn't know what I was missing

[Rhino]

I see on there web site multiple cam profile choices for the tamer....did you just go with what comes as standard or did you use a different one? Want to make sure I am ordering the right one. Thanks

My understanding is that the multi cam system is for racing and some of the cams are actually more aggressive. The "tamer" is a different product and only one model for our bike. As Conrad said the site seems to be down or I would post the link to the exact product I bought.

Yep, they only make one 'Tamer' that works on our bikes.

I'm finally set in getting this thing. So after yesterday's glitch with their site, I finally got to it and they seem to offer yet another option called Quick Turn Throttle Tube. Anybody knows something about it?
I'm intersted in decreasing the angle of rotation of the grip that is necessary to achieve full throttle, but I think that increasing the cam radius will also increase the effort that has to be applied. Thoughts?
Besides, does this Quick Turn variant include the "taming" function?

Where did you see this on their site Martin?

Damnit.  OK, I ordered one now too.  Maybe my friend can help install it one day.

It's easy, just use an X-acto knife to cut the heated grips off and yer done.  I can be down there to help in short order.

LOL!

Yeah, that was "fun"

You know he won't install them until AFTER he drops the bike...

That really is on the slate for this fall.  With all the work I've been doing, everything is being pushed back, although I did adjust my suspension and put my heavier bar ends back on this past weekend.

why's that, Jim? and what's the effect?

[VirginiaJim]

For the vibration I've been getting on the right side.  I don't know if it has helped or not as I haven't been out on the bike since I put them back on.  I'll know this week as I may have some clients that I'll ride out to if the weather cooperates.

My Throttle Tamer arrived yesterday.  The packaging had the wrong bike listed (some 650 thing) so I had to call, but they said it was just a labeling mistake- that 650 uses the same end cam as the Concours, although the tube is different (and would be red).

Maybe I will attempt to install it after Jim installs his Canyons.....

In other words...ain't gonna happen?

Darn this site telling me about products I didn't even know I needed!  Just placed an order, I have noticed the jerkiness of the throttle before but was just living with it.  BTW, you can order it off Amazon for $64 shipped in the US: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0031742QC/ref=ox_ya_os_product but only a few left in stock.

Please note that listing does not show the correct cam for the Concours application, which is SF4.  Of course, it looks like there are many listings on there, all with the same photo and "400" Cam with just the "Application" changed.  Rather confusing.
