Default ThrottlePak

Hi guy's,

Just came from my Indy and he told me of this new product he saw at the v-twin show in Ohio, it is designed to help with throttle lag with throttle-by-wire motorcycle. Plan to have it installed with my next service a couple of weeks from now. Will let you know how it works.

Never noticed a "throttle lag" myself.

I removed the throttle lag (which I never really noticed) with my TTS MasterTune, also calibrated the speedometer. I'm glad I don't have to spend another $220.

Both the TTS and the SEPST (or whateverthehellitis) already have that capability.

I don't have a tuner but I have a tiny bit of throttle lag, most notibal when ruising at 70 or so and then wack the throttle to pass in 5th or 6th gear. I am interested to see if this works I is available thru mail order places for $180 so if it does work pretty inexpensive.

Actually, the TTS is the only one that has the true ability to remove throttle lag. The screaming eagle tuners are only able to program it out while the bike is in neutral which, as Patches O' Houlihan once said, is "about as useful as a poopy flavored lollipop".

If your bike is bone stock you have it, you just have not noticed it yet. I am guessing most riders do not ever ride in such a way that it is apparent.

Wink Didn't know it existed

Now that I have a $300 PCV, I don't feel compelled to spend another $200 on a throttle "lag" gizmo...even though I COULD!

They make a poor selling point for something most of us didn't care about. $220? Made "In-house"? Sure....
