    Default Anyone looked at fixing the Stiff Throttle spring? Tired hand....

    Anybody looked at the throttle spring on these things? Seems mighty stiff, doesn't take long to begin to wear on the hand.

    Can't speak for a Ryker, but I took one out of my 14 Spyder RT which didn't really effect the return capability. It made the throttle less tiring ..... JMHO .... Mike

    Is it ride by wire, Mike? I’m guessing that’s what we have on the Ryker, but I don’t actually know.

    Yep, a quick search tells me the Ryker is ride by wire.

    There are many things by different names that look the same.
    Throttle rocker
    Cramp buster
    are some.
    I think Lamonster has something listed.
    I have some friends that swear by them.

    Put a Pedal Commander on it. Instantly loosens up the throttle so you don't have to twist as much. I am sure you will find a setting you like.
    Ride safe; shiny side up, greasy side down.

    best,

    Thank you! First up is the Cramp Buster Raven mentioned, bought one of those today and we’ll see how it goes. I’ll read up on the Pedal Commander, that’s a new one on me. May have to look inside the switch gear just to see what’s in there. Thanks again.
