KZ650 quick throttle?

Anybody here convert their KZ650's throttle to a quicker unit? I'd like to change out my stock one now as I broke a throttle cable and now would be the time to do it. I'd like to know where you got the throttle and cables, what parts numbers you used, and how you like it. I'm using the stock carbs and superbike bars. Thanks in advance guys!
1977 KZ650B1 - Mostly stock except for some appearance mods.

i use a dirtbike throttle on my 810. Not a whole lot of range between idle and wide open. I like it though. I used a kz cable with slight modification to the unit to get the cable to work. It is stiffer than a normal throttle but that is probably a good thing with a quick throttle
