The throttle on mine is fairly twitchy. It rears it's ugly head quite often.

Well, while the motors (99-02 R6) are based on the same design they aren't the same. The R6 has a kick in the pants boost of power at 8 and again at 10,000 RPMs. It's not just a small performance boost. I'm going to look for parts now.
