Desmoquattro Throttle

Is the only way to give the old quattros a quick throttle response to install a new cam on the throttle body assembly? Can't go with the Yamaha throttle tube?

If so, how is the Electron, or whatever it's called? Most posts regarding this cam are old and I'm looking for some current or long-term use feedback.

Do I need to adjust the throttle position (voltage) if I get a new cam?

I've been using that cam for a couple of years. It helps but it's not a drastic difference. Still have to release and regroup sometimes. The billet throttle that desmotimes sells looks better.

And no, you don't have to reset anything. Maybe some cable slack,

Precisely what I wanted to hear, thanks.
