[QUOTE="Harald, post: 1353626, member: 8054"] The throttle spring unwind really helps with fatigue. I did it on my 07 when new and have had no regrets for the last 118,000 miles. I should warn you that the throttle return will be lazy when your rolling down the road, so don't expect the throttle to snap shut if you release the grip. Never been a problem for me, but might not allow you to take the bike on a track if they check for that (some do). BTW, I just released the spring and let it spin around. It ended up with a slight gap between the spring end and the catch it normally rests on. I thought that maybe it had unwound more than one turn, but it was confirmed from another member that attached a wire loop and manually unwound the spring that this is normal for a one loop unwind.
