    Twist Throttle

    I was wondering how many people ride with twist throttles? My thumb cramps up so bad with the thumb throttle so I decided to buy a twist throttle. I have rode dirt bikes for a long time and think I will like the twist better on my 400. Some people think they are dangerous but I don't see why. It is just something you have to get used to.

    hey, i have a twist on my 01' that i just bought that i dont want. would anyone wanna trade with a little $$. i would say this twist (its MINT) is worth 25 so i would trade someone (ill throw in some cash) for their thumb throttle and cable. let me know, email preferrably. zlam27@hotmail.com

    thanks guys, i hope someone is willing to trade. i didnt grow up on bikes, but it didnt take long to get somewhat used to the twist. they are fun, but i want a thumb personally.

    I can't stand the thumb throttle for long rides. My thumb gets cramped up and I have to use the palm of my hand just to keep going.

    i dont like twist throtle on quads. on a dirtbike when u turn the bike leans with u so the throtle does too, but on a quad it seams like when i turn and lean mu body the quad stas flat so i seem to give it more gas when i dont want too. i only had it on a day and swithed back. i probly could have got use to it but i didnt give it a chance

    I see most people using Motion Pro twist throttles.
