Oh, by dead spot I didn't mean out-of-powerband, by dead spot I meant area where the throttle doesn't actuate the throttle cable. Have you ever ridden an electric bike? At very first the throttle turns a bit and nothing happens - it just made the bike feel like a toy, just like an electric minibike. I'm sure it was the fastest bike out on the range that day and might almost hang with my 750 cruiser.
