My throttle mod will work and provide an increase in throttle response on ANY skoot whether it is FBW or direct cable to throttle body or carburetor. My mod also incorporates in it's design an aspect which helps in low throttle opening engine smoothness and response.
Proper throttle cable adjustment is important on all skoots, having the least amount of cable slack offers better throttle control but DOES NOT alter the ratio of throttle grip rotation to throttle plate opening. Any questions please pm me with a phone # and i'll personally call and explain. RACNRAY p.s....MANY THANX to all you guys that have taken the time to post your experiences with this mod. Positive Testimonials from you guys are far more important than anything i can say. THANX!!

Im doing it. Thanks for the info boys. Sorry was a little thick between the ears and didnt see the contact info. Didnt read whole thread. Was convinced after a couple of testimonials. I have been frustrated by the throttle delay and the inability to control the throttle as well as i would like at low speed. Im doing the mod. Seems inexpensive to me. I will report how it goes when im done. Thanks again for passing it along.

Did the throttle mod. Amazing! Like a completely different bike in the way it tunes the throttle in. Great control and no lag. I am really impressed. If you have a voyager and it has not had the throttle modified and you want to deal with it, do the mod. Whether you get it from ray or some where else just do the job because it is amazing. Improves ridability dramatically. Total control! Thanks Ray!

Hi Ray,
Wanted to thank you again for the throttle modification. Amazing the difference in performance. Much appreciated. ! For those that live in Canada, Ray does not ship to Canada, however, I utlitized CBI USA just over the border. Got Ray to ship there, and picked it up several days later. Very easy to use. Thanks again Ray ! I've suggested to a bunch of people up here in Ontario, and I hope they take full advantage of it!

Your not to far away from me, good to hear that your happy with the purchase. I don't know why some places don't want to ship to Canada, can't figure that one out.
Ive used CBI a few times myself, its a great service.

I did a throttle modification to one of my old GSX-R's by cutting a piece of PVC pipe that was the same width as the throttle cable track on the throttle tube and just fit over the top of the throttle tube, tapered off the ends...then super glued it and countersunk two small screws on either end of it, which in turn slightly enlarged the circumfrence of the throttle cable track. Can anyone who has had the modification done, tell me if this is what's being done?
