Throttle percentage ... linear or progressive?
Stock is a 1/4 turn throttle right... So that means 9 degrees of turn is 10% if it is linear....
Are throttle's linear? Or does it open the throttle increasingly fast as you turn the handle? EX... actual handle turns 25% of it's 90 degrees of motion... but only opens throttle 10% and if handle turns 50% of its motion its at 45% etc...???
I was curious after getting a bike tuned, (again), found that 20% throttle and higher was fine, but 10% and under were really rich.
I find it hard to believe it is straight, otherwise how could you hold a 2% 5% and 10% tune with such little turn.
I want to know so I can compare and potentially tune for highway cruising at a certain handle throttle position.
