How much throttle angle rotation is needed for wide open with a G2 400 cam compared to a stock 1/4 turn?

I think it's the same or very close - I haven't measured it. I heard somewhere that the G2 cams slow the initial ramp then get quicker. Anyway it feels like you can get WFO with a similar handfull.

The throttle cam will allow full throttle but it will take longer.

Exactly. The 400 cam helps in tight trees, rocky, and hillclimbs.

I don't notice any real hesitation running the 400 cam. When I hit double track with whoops all I do is hit the throttle and go.

The front end still lofts easily to get over obstacles.

I took a good careful look at the G2 websight, and found a .050 cam, but its only for 4 strokes.
I looked for an E-mail adress, so I could try to learn why the .050 can only be used for 4 strokes or if they are developing one for 2 strokes also.

Any ideas ??

I modified the ramp on my son's RM65 throttle tube on a disk sander similar
to the G2. It helps him ride in the tight woods and slows down the hit.
Cost me about 5min. during lunch break!
Good Luck!

What it does is make the carb slide travel non-linear relative to the throttle rotation angle. The total rotation from closed to WFO is still the same. You have more resolution in control below half throttle with the 200 and 400 cams, but more than that quickly opens the slide to where it would be with the 100 cam (stock).

did anyone else have a bit of a time getting the cable end into 400 cam. I had to unscrerw the top of the carb to get enough cable to pay out and it was still a pain in the arse. Did I miss something along the way?? Swapping out cams isn't something i would want to do a lot of.
