This is why I want to get the Electraeon.
I hardly ever get to 100% throttle
because it takes too much twisting to get there.
That issue must be solved

hey guys question for anyone with the G2 Throttle Tamer installed.
Did you just adjust the throttle cable from top of throttle cable only as I have done
OR
did you adjust at the bottom near the throttle itself as well. I measured the 'freeplay' on mine currently at around 6-7mm however I ain't getting any 'jerkyness' I assumed this extra ''freeplay' was caused by the tamer/cam install to alleviate the original stock 'jerkyness' as described in the G2 video.
Just making sure I have mine setup in the best possible way.

I don't have a G2, but 6-7 mm sounds way too much.... Do you really mean you can twist the grip 6 - 7 mm without it resulting in anything? For me, the on/off throttle was gone when I reduced my freeplay to almost (ALMOST!) zero.
My adjustment was done down by the engine.

Ok interesting.
I placed a piece of paper on grip and throttle assembly and measured the distance i could move before it revs. I got to around 6-7mm, interestingly enough I don't get the bite caused by what you would think would be much slack.
I will adjust mine down below then as I cannot adjust any further from the top as it will only allow so much.

I think the top adjuster is meant for minor adjustments, like when the wire stretches a little bit over time.
Screw the top adjuster all the way in before you adjust down by the engine. Then fine adjust on top.

I really dislike anything but the minimum cable freeplay, like 1-2mm or so travel measured at the grip. Makes a big difference to me. I would highly encourage you to tighten up the cable with the top adjuster and take it out for a spin.

BK , unfortunately as mentioned above the top adjuster is only for minor adjustments which still leaves me with 6-7mm. So tonight I will adjust the bottom one which is designed to achieve larger adjustments which it seems I require.

Sorry didn't catch that, but as described they both accomplish the same thing, so adjust away and don't settle for anything less than perfection. If you end up with a high warm idle you've gone just a bit too far.

the Electraeon is a plus for me as it saves my wrist from being in an awkward position at full or 3/4 throttle where I do a lot of Autobahn riding.
but in town... it's touchy, but still smooth.
+10 for an 1100.
Excellent for the twisty stuff, and the track, and flogging it. A bit touchy in traffic. But so nice to whack wide open
