            Some info I found Goooooogling !!

            --------------------------


            --->Let's start with what is a "Quick Throttle"?
            Quick throttle, Quick action, and also 1/4 Turn are all describing generaly the same product: a motorcycle throttle housing with a Pulley (also called "cams" or "rings") that it's diameter is LARGER than the stock original pulley.

            ---> And what does it do?
            Having a larger pulley simply makes a shorter stroke required to go from 0% throttle to wide open 100% throttle position, meaning less twist of my wrist is needed to hit the gas all the way. Therefor the name "quick action" or "1/4 turn"..


            --->Why should I install one?
            Simple, even if you are a calm rider that only makes short trips on your bike you always encounter those situations when your wrist is twisted as far as you can, but the throttle is not! So then you find yourself in the middle of passing another vehicle focusing on lowering and crunching your upper body and right arm just to get that extra leverage you need to open the throttle more than it is. Not to mention some find causing fatigue on their right palm and wrist when they have to constantly play with it. Now if you're a more "sport type" rider or making track days on your bike just imagine how much precious time it can save you coming out of sharp corners or fast sweepers :-)

              • These quick throttles things don't suit our 4-stroke bikes.They are mostly made for the two strokes.Please DONT install it in your bikes,you will repent later on! I had one installed in my old bike(Passion),it was a local made one but the cover said 'Daytona'..lol.The throttle becomes too tight and causes wrist pain.My palms went red after a few hours of riding in bumper to bumper traffic.I reverted to stock throttle assembly the other day itself.So don't go for it I say.Anyways,our RTRs already has that racing throttle response,so be happy with it.

                A motorcycle functions entirely in accordance with the laws of reason, and a study of the art of motorcycle maintenance is really a miniature study of the art of rationality itself.

                  • +1. Quick throttles are used mainly in motocross bikes.

                    and if you are so adamant on it, get an Auto Throttle like I have on ma 190..

                        huummmmmm
                        Yes google image
                        quick response to posts yes it's one of the best thing you can do with your bike my shogun (2-Stroke) use to run on bungbon is made in Singapore/ Malaysia (not sure) quick throttle for 2.6 years no harm,
                        DAYTONA
                        is local brand not recommend to buy (the experience u got is the same as I have with Daytona) but not with BungBon.
                        last time a saw these things on RTR 180,160Fi, 160 on the day when ARE (Apache Racing Experience) happened in Mumbai Hiranandani Racing Track.
                        it was same Brand everything same. just colors different. my friend used same throttle on his Karizma & another on R15 & it feel perfect no harm 6 months old.
                        It'll cost around Rs.750/- to Rs.950/-
                        i think one should try let's see if i get some time to work on the bike i'll do this thank you for replies.
                        Ride Safe.

                            are you referring to the problem in your throttle or was it some one else reporting a problem that the throttle get s stuck.

                              Auto Throttle, as the name suggests, is automatic throttle. When and where not required, the throttle with automatically open up.
                              Just kidding guys... its time for me to change that cable, it get pulled when turning to either extremes...
