Guys,
What throttle tubes are you all running? I have the Pro Taper Twister throttle tube on my bikes but it was brought to my attention that this design of throttle tube changes where the throttle is positioned on the handlebar by about 1/2". The throttle is further away from the centerline of the handlebars to accommodate the bearing end. So...i'm probably going to move away from this style. What are you all running and why? How are you lubing the tube to handlebar surface? Any other techniques to lubing the throttle system that is working for you?
Thanks guys

Now....if I would have never known this would it be a problem? Absolutely not
I tried an aluminum throttle tube once and I honestly cannot understand how anybody can use one. It's one of those weird little things that I notice. I could probably ride a bent-frame bike, but don't give me an AL throttle tube!!!
I don't like the slight play that a plastic throttle tube gives, any rattle in my throttle annoys me

They actually make a new one for the ktm where you can use both the two different oem throttle cams.... Got one on my husky

I know. I have the titan and they have the user use the throttle cam that comes stock on the ktm. I was referring to the works connection. Does the titan come with the cam installed with any of their versions of the throttle tube?
its getting a little confusing, LOL.
