Internal throttle
Does increasing the length of the slot in the handlebar allow the throttle to open further to allow my A/M carb to fully open? Would I have to increase the spiral as well? Looks like I am only getting perhaps 80% throttle opening presently and really want to keep original bars with the internal. Thanks

Depends on the carb - would not re invent the wheel as its not sprung and sticking in the full position would be a thing
i have re located the Ferrell inward to change the travel to less - its a thing
are you sure your all the way in before to pull out - also the receiver is also the distributor side one as it pulls not pushes

The carb is a super E and it seems that the pull from the slider in the bar is less than what the butterfly requires for full bore. All of the components in the bars are working quite well just short of overall "throw" so to speak

I am running an internal throttle (stock) with a S&S Super E on my 1970. Cable itself is custom. I have no issue with the amount of travel. I am wondering if you are having a different issue?

Billy some years the left receiver has a shorter throw in the pull then others
moding them is done but you cant fake it it needs to be machined on a rotating table Towards the handlebar - you move the starting point
time it takes to make it happen

I think that I am losing some action in a couple of different spots maybe in flex of the softer wire core. But it doesn't sound like altering the slot is an option. Bike may last longer that way! Thanks for the advice
