To each his own. I just tried them again without the restrictor and the throw was a tad too long for my tastes. As long as you like them, that's all that matters. (hard spring ftw!)

I tried them both before going with the circular.  I had a really hard time installing the octo plates.  The mounting holes did not match up with the little pegs.  Also, at first I had the octo plate on upside down, because it wasn't really intuitive to me which way it was supposed to go.  Once I got it on correctly, I was suprised that there was very, very little throw left to the stick.  Not nearly enough for my tastes. 

I was testing with the medium spring and short shaft.

Which was is up?  It doesn't seem obvious to me, and I don't see anything on the Ultimarc site about it.  I have to assume that I have it backwards since it's impossible for me to install it as it is. :)

Updating this old thread for back to the future readers.  Andy/Ultimarc has just re-modeled and updated his version of the U360 Octagon restrictor plates to increase the throw a tad bit, and also correct the mounting holes.  I say "his version", because there are other octo restrictors made for the Sanwa stick that can be used on the 360.

His comment on the update is in this thread:
