[QUOTE="Ari Rankum, post: 152340, member: 1861"] Yup. There were two of us with '06 FJRs in the class I took. The instructor was on an '05. I can tell you how many times we got the "you need to be more gentle with the throttle" comments in the drills. Harrumph. I agree, it's more controllable. It's still not fixed, though. There's a nice gentle sweeper on the way to work that I practice on every morning. I've got all the time in the world to set up on it and, because it's gentle, I've got a relatively large window of time in which to roll on the throttle. So I can try to just barely rotate my wrist to deal with this regressive throttle pulley. Here's me on the sweeper => easy does it, easy does it, easy does it, [B]BANG![/B] or worse easy does it, easy does it, easy does it, [B]ON,[/B] [I]off,[/I] [B]ON,[/B] [I]off.[/I] Grrrr. [/QUOTE]
