Seems really pricey though. I really think that this could be a do-it-yourself-er... if you're so inclined I'm sure there's a way to do it.

In fact, I think I remember some member/members here talking about it awhile back...

Ahh, yes, here you go:

Hope that helps.

aftermarket 1/4 turn throttle are out there....none are cheap.

Guys talk about the "zip tie mod". What they do is take a piece of a wide zip tie and glue it to the OD of the throttle tube on the portion that the cables ride. This makes the cables ride on a larger diameter, and so reduces your required rotation.
