This was mainly the first mod I made as the throttle gap was super annoying for me. Install and forget or better enjoy.
 
I put some in and then took them out after one ride, was nothing for me.

There are multiple versions, the plastic printed ones and the milled aluminum ones.
 
I fitted a set. Much better and after the first ride with them fitted, completely unnoticeable. The ones I got were from a company called Ducati spacers.

If you’re in the south of England I have some spares.
 
Thank you myers64. I bought the plastic Ebay ones. When I emptied them out of the small packet I thought 'I seriously spent £20 on those?!' After fitting (slightly fiddly as they are a very tight fit) I test rode and have to say they have really improved throttle control. Much less jerkiness now. Much smoother.
It's counter intuitive; all my other and previous bikes (with cable throttles) need a few mm slack in the cable for best throttle control. I guess this is a symptom of ride by wire control. Anyway, very glad I took Vatte's advice. Thank you!
 
Glad to hear you find them an improvement. I did exactly the same thing - felt slightly ripped off but no so after fitting.
 
@myers64 Where did you order them? I can't find them anywhere in Europe. Buying them from their official website would cost me around 100€ just for shipping. Thank you!

I may have remembered differently. I just had to look for it in my emails, it was in fact eBay and the manufacture is called Racetorx.
