twist throttle to thumb throttle question...

[rabbithuntr14]

Just curious if anybody know what kind of thumb throttle would work on an 01 yz125 2 stroke? Kinda random but I got the bike for almost nothing and need to make it quad rider approved lol

See my answer in that thread. The same would apply if you had a 38 carb.

Stick with the twist, once you get used to it, you will change over your quad, they are way easier to use.

I put a twist throttle on my Honda and could not get used to it.. I've tried riding bikes and don't feel comfortable so therefor I'm going to what's comfortable and I'm smooth on lol thanks for the help guys!

Just have to ride with a twisty long enough to get used to it. It takes a few crap your pants moments when you come off of a jump or bump and smack it wide open to figure it out. I don't get arm pump since I can hold on with my full hand and can ride all day/weekend/week without my thumb ever wanting to fall off. I think there are some advantages to using the thumb throttle but I still will always have a twisty in there.

It is a "FACT" that twist throttle is better then thumb, for hand grip on the bars and control.

It is a personal preference to use one or the other.

I suffer from a ATV related hand injury, I have to use twist throttles from now on so I can grip the bars firmly.
