Breva Heated Grip cable position
DoubleGuzzi:
Looks like the same design as the Norge..

Throttle tube integrated with grip, so stuck with cable positioning, unless someone knows different.
(There's a thread on here about replacing the grips with alternatives.)

Yes, it is the same design as the Norge and the same controls.
To fix the problem, do I need to remove and replace the grip module with a new one? Also there is no noticeable stop at the closed throttle position. Should there be any screw to stop twisting the throttle in the opposite direction?

I may just update the issue and answer my own questions:
- The cable for the heating element is at a 90-degree angle to the throttle-cable fixing point when used with the older-type switches (Breva 1100, for example). Replacing the throttle grip with the one from Norge or later Breva (V1200) that has a 180-degree angle between the throttle-cable fixing point and the cable for the heating element will hopefully solve the problem.
- The stop at the closed position can be achived by loosening the tension of the throttle closing cable.

I have the new grip installed since yesterday evening.
Here are some photographs showing the details:

The throttle stop is not particularly robust. You’ve to be careful when closing the twist grip against the abutment, heavy handedness will come back to haunt you.
