i put a thumb throttle on

<< < (3/3)

PowerFiend:
I like thumb throttles. Rode with them for years on ATC's and had a hard time riding an ATC with a Twist. Never really had an issue with twists on bikes, so never tried thumbs. One of the reasons I didn't have issues with bikes is because you can squeeze with your legs to control your position on the bike. With quads and ATC's you need to be able to hang off to slide around corners and they are lower, so it is hard to grip with your legs.

If you use it or find one to use, let us know how it works, after shatering both the ulna and radius in my right wrist the flexability isnt so good as the doc had to screw and plate it. hand gets sore after awhile and I look like an idiot moving my intire am to gas it  let me know please

i switched out the raptor thumb throttle for a honda 400ex thumb throttle now. it has different insides which make it have an easier pushing sensation....it feels lighter....it is a much better feel now. huge difference. hope this helps you guys out.

congrads on the change over.  I don't think I could coordinate the thumb throttle just because of my dirt bike only prior experience but honestly anything that gets you through the trails safer is good in my book.
good luck with it.
