If I don't know that I have throttle lag do I really have it. In other words if the throttle input is consistant what difference does it make. When I want to pass someone I plan ahead no different than if I had instant throttle response. Generally if something on the bike bothers me enough I do something about it. The ThrottlePak sounds like an answer to a question nobody has asked.

Actually it is a question someone asked and V&H responded. If you don't know you have throttle lag then it is not for you.

I love this forum, I bought a brand new 2010 Ultra and was very happy, then I started reading here and removed my cat,installed vied's, upgraded to an SE compensator. And now I'm gonna be thinking about throttle response every time I ride, don't think ill drop 2 bills on this one though. Keep em coming

It is no wonder that that manufacturers of aftermarket parts are really behind these forums LOL. You ought to visit a Kaw KLR650 forum. You can not even leave the garage on a brand new bike without having to tear into the motor to replace faulty parts lol

Not so. Revolution Performance Precision tuner seems to be doing an excellent job of eliminating all problems with performance issues. Haven't run mine enough since I installed it to say much, but checking 5 different HD forums, I haven't seen anything negative yet. What little I have run it, I'm happy and have great expectations!
