65° throttle

[rayivers]

From the MX firmware page (all models have a similar entry):

MX_1.5.1 (7/25/18)
- support for additional 65-degree throttles

Does anyone have any nuts-and-bolts info on this? Throttle curve and regen are the only user-unserviceable things I need fixed on my MXR, I'm hoping I can address at least one of them.

The aftermarket Domino throttle made a real difference on my Zero in throttle response and wrist fatigue (@ 78° turn, quicker power ramp-up fm 0- 1/2 rotation). It'd be great to put a simple 0-5V potentiometer setup like this on the Alta . The Domino installation took a bit of effort, but definitely worth it.

Looking forward to some info on this as well.

All I know is first generation throttle was 80deg rotation (oem on all bikes except my19 exr and replacements). The new version, which actually started the whole throttle issue is now 65deg.

This is not quite correct: only a few 2017 MX bikes have a 80 degrees throttle and from my information all of them were for internal use (demos) so no customer should have one.

I already started thinking about upgrading my MXR throttle to a 65deg unit, LOL.
