Default aluminum throttle tubes????

Anyone know where to buy aluminum throttle tubes? I know they are out there for offroad bikes but what about sport bikes?

thats a tough one, best thing to do is grab the 9 tube and a dial caliper and find a place with the ktm tube in stock and measure the cable connections and i.d. of the tube and all that. make sure the cables will fit and not bind in the housing etc... i have no access to either tube or i would get you all the dimentions and see if it would work for you.
