You obviously havent done long distance work on an IL4 with slide carbs, even with a perfectly routed brand new cable you still need to hold the twistgrip relatively tightly to keep it open.


Carbs are the work of the devil and I will actively tell people to fuck off if they try to sell me a bike that's got them. Wink

I have one too (ie, an OEM electronic one) and I have to say that at my age (and using a bike mainly for reasonably long rides)j, I now literally don't think I'd even consider buying a bike without it. Not out of laziness but for the ability to regularly take my right hand off the throttle to flex my fingers, to stay comfortable all day.


Yep, that's where I'm at. Not to mention all these average speed camera bloody things everywhere.
