throttle peddle movement
I need to make the peddle travel longer as from idle to WOT is around 1" of peddle movment 
Was thinking along the lines of introducing a bell crank at around a 2:1 ratio, maybe slightly less. Anyone got any other ideas?
cheers
If its broke, fix it. If it aint broke, take it apart and find out how it works!

Floor mounted or high-mounted?
Can you not just move the cable further from the pivot point?

high mounted.
Unfortunatly not. where it would ideally go is a mounting point for the peddle box. If I move it to the other side of this then it is very close to
the rear M/C bellows and pushrod and I figure Mr. SVA might not like that very much.
Also dont I want to move it closer to the pivot point? Cant do that because of the aforementioned!

Sorry, stupid moment. yes, you need to move it closer to the pivot.
Got a pic, so we can see the problem? Where are you thinking of adding the bell crank?

How about adding a bellcrank? You could easliy change the cable movement ratio that way...

what about changing the size of the pulley/lever on the throttle body/carb to adjust your pedal to throttle movement?

Yes indeed, WOT is wide open throttle.
Ill take some pics and post em up in an hour or so.
Would be happy to change the lever/pulley on the throttle bodies as that would be a much simpler solution then adding a bellcrank into the line.

OK, pics!
Movement strangly looks a lot more in the pics then in actually is!!!
This is where I was thinking of mounting a bellcrank ie where the throttle cable is supported.....
