    Im bored of having to twist my throttle back so far on the blade. Has anyone fitted a QAT? Whats it like and any suggested buys?

    I was going to ask a similar question cos I had one on my old TL and it was prob the best mod I did. Altho it was just an insert fitted onto the standard throttle tube. The throttle on these are separate to the switch gear so it can be one with adjustable cams I guess.

    For road or track use?
    Track I would say go for it but on the road I would say no, do you really want 0-180bhp in a 1/4 turn? Feck that!

    I had and will have the Honda HRC quick action throttle kit again, great on the road and track, you retain a lot of control so no worries there, the kit is about £90

    The kit is new throttle tube and casing and new cables, bit of a pita to fit but well worth it :)

    I think a R6 throttle tube will convert a Blade throttle to 60 deg and they,re cheapish on ebay.

    That's what i use. Its the R6 throttle cam, not quite 1/4 of a turn, but not far off. Can make town riding interesting LOL, but no probs so far.
