I am wondering the same thing. I rode with a guy who has a DT200WR today with his PV linked directly to his throttle cable so the PV opens with 50% throttle. His 200 wasted my 250 : (

Did you have any luck with this?

Lol, considering when he posted that (2004) I very much doubt you'll here back from the OP! So
Sounds like a good idea though!

The trouble is the powervalve position although related is not completely dependent on throttle position, it also needs to know RPM.

If you give a big fistful of throttle at low RPM you would not want the valve to open at all or you would have no power.

Strange- I had a run-in with a DT200 a few weeks ago and it couldn't touch me....

Power-valve connected through the throttle cable, now that's a weird concept that wouldn't work IMHO (that's why we have the black box of tricks under the seat!). Sounds like a do-it-yourself job.
