New throttlebodies anyone?

$2,500 from TLM.

$1,700 +GST from our local importer but I'll believe it when they arrive.........

It's still outrageous.

But single TB is RBW? Nowhere to stick cables.

Is that right? You reckon that'll stop me? Hold my beer....

I haven't asked for my beer back, yet.

Goes like stink and still has enough torque to pull down a brick shithouse.

Feels like bottom end torque is stronger, in fact.

Is the throttle response slowed? - You might expect that if the throttle valve is furhter from the inlet valves...

If not... what a result Pictures please

GRiSO Capo Posts : 10200 Join date : 2013-09-30

No change in throttle response. Launches still terrify if you give it a handful. I was hoping to get Pete & Tony to ride it on the weekend for their feedback. Bloody weather put paid to that. I'll do a write up soonest.

Beetle,
You know no boundaries! Wow, incredible.

Nice one Mark

Was the stepper motor a second-hand one or new?

Like the conversion a lot, but I think the Sport may be a bit more of a pain to do.

GRiSO Capo Posts : 10200 Join date : 2013-09-30

The stepper was used. I bought a set of complete throttle bodies of a Ducati 848 that had only done 15k km. $189 AUD, which is peanuts compared to €600@+ for a new stepper unit. ~€300 for a used one. 2nd hand Ducati stuff is cheap.
