I've got one but have not installed it yet. I have read they take a bit of getting used to. I ride a Fazer 1000 everyday and was a bit worried I would end up on my arse with the throttle conversion. Did you adapt quickly?

heya, took about 3-4 days from time he shipped

impressions after 2 days of riding with it is it's how bike should be. find myself riding in much higher gears than before as drive is easier to reach...

they dont have a constant outside diameter, they are sort of tear drop shaped i think
