[QUOTE="MY-BLUE-BEAST, post: 147473, member: 388"] This is a throttle technique I use, I'm not sure if its an old one or if I'm the only one who uses it. All the people I ride with say they don't do it. When I open up my throttle I roll my hand instead of griping and dropping my elbow. If im going for speed I do this to get the full throttle open without any elbow drop or loss of control. closed throttle and quarter throttle. [IMG]http://i1130.photobucket.com/albums/m529/JZ67SS/WP_000706_zps101b47db.jpg[/IMG] normal use of the throttle. Half throttle [IMG]http://i1130.photobucket.com/albums/m529/JZ67SS/WP_000707_zps2d17c130.jpg[/IMG] I start to roll my hand back at first sign of elbow drop, allowing the throttle to open full throttle [IMG]http://i1130.photobucket.com/albums/m529/JZ67SS/WP_000708_zps8120764e.jpg[/IMG] I roll my hand all the way back kind of turning it into a monkey paw. This allows full throttle with little to no elbow drop and still gives me control over the bike. sometimes I keep my thumb on the throttle when im all the way back [IMG]http://i1130.photobucket.com/albums/m529/JZ67SS/WP_000709_zps007e4973.jpg[/IMG] I only use this on a straight away or when im on the street. when im in tight technical stuff I don't get anywhere near full throttle. Its a little different, but it works awesome for getting the speed im looking for. All of my riding buddies... okay the whole two of them, I have no friends :cry: :smirk: ... say that they don't do this and never even heard of it. Any thoughts or improvement? [/QUOTE]
