Has anyone seen cracks like this on their throttle linkage? I asked my local dealer and we compared to an S2R that only had 3K miles on it (mine has 22K) and it had a couple as well. The dealer was thinking it happened during manufacture but he didn't exactly leave me with a warm and IZ_ feeling. The one at 12 o'clock worries me the most as it extends up and over the edge. I can't really tell if this is a rubberized cover only or if it's one piece. Anyone seen this before?

hmmm it's showing for me. Here's a direct link: http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r212/moore_clan/P5300006.jpg (http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r212/moore_clan/P5300006.jpg)
Got it. Sorry, w/o the pic I thought you were talking about the throttle housing at the handlebar. I have some cracks there from overtightening the screws, I think. I see what you are saying. My M800 throttle cam is all metal. It seems you can use some good epoxy to keep it together or get a replacement cam from electaeon. I'm using the electraeon fast cam and I'm very happy with it. It is made of metal.
Do you happen to have a link? I am not having much luck finding an OEM replacement yet.

Awesome, thanks! [beer]
Does anyone make one other than red?
You can strip the anodizing easily enough for an aluminum finish. Boil it in a TSP solution or dip it in a lye solution. Look up all the cautions.
