[QUOTE="blakmambo, post: 1338127, member: 89945"] @Ross: OK, thanks for the reply and typically I have no problem reving to 4K or more to @ upshift; thanks for the thoughts about "roll-on acceleration from 2K not being to exhilarating" which sure, wouldn't expect that to be the case and not asking for that--possibly that could explain parts of the issue, but this would be roll-on from 60mph that isn't too snappy. I find the bike to be consummately smooth, great in the turns, but more like a freight train on freeway acceleration in the 4 - 5K rev range--we will "get there" in due time--possibly taller gears than the Gen1??? I still am looking for direct experience with the competition G2 installed; I found a thread yesterday where someone was asking about a "quick turn" throttle, but they didn't post back with results and I couldn't find it again today. Instead I found the other quote of someone posting about a similar issue of "tight throttle"--possibly with more miles the bike will "loosen up"??? Question is how long will that take, or if some small mods will impact the issue. @HRZ: Yes, could be backrest would be one of those "less expensive" "solutions." [/QUOTE]
