Clearly this isn't really an issue with the bonnie, but with my new Street Triple, I'm considering giving this a try. Has anyone had any experience with the G2 Street Tamer Throttle Tube? It's looks like a pretty simple way to mitigate the twitchy-ness of the Streetie.

G2 Challenge: Improve control of over-responsive power characteristics of most fuel injected motorcycles.
G2 Solution: The Throttle Tamer.
The Throttle Tamer incorporates a non-linear ratio between hand throttle rotation and carburetor or throttle body opening. The “pulley”, or as we call it, “cam” pulls the throttle cable as the rider rotates the grip/tube. By altering the conventional, circular shaped cam, a vast improvement in control is achieved.
The Throttle Tamer has a cam with a reduced radius initially, which requires a slightly farther rotation to achieve the same carburetor or throttle body opening position as a stock throttle. This virtually eliminates the jerky “throttle snatch” especially evident in modern fuel injected street bikes. The radius increases or “ramps up” after ½ throttle to keep overall rotation requires to reach full throttle at or near stock rotation.
