Default twist throttle

just threw one on my raptor, it seems to be good. I only had a couple close calls with hitting the front brake and not letting off the throttle but over all I liked it, but I will need time to get used to it completly. Anybody else use this for desert racing and does it help with arm fatige??

Just did the same thing on my raptor a couple of weeks ago. So far one of the best mods that I have made. I can't stand thumb throttles.

If your going to do any type of racing that type throttle is the way to go.

Default twist throttle

had one on a highly modded banshee and hated it. works fine untill you get into trouble and forget you now have a twist throttle to let go of. i damn near hit a tree head on at about 45 - 50 mph trying to hang on after my left hand got jarred off of the handlebars , i couldnt let off the throttle cause the thing was pulling like a mother and the only thing holding me on was my right hand. scariest moment ive ever had on a quad , and ive had numerous serious injuries and crashes over the years. they work good on bikes , but i dont like it on a quad it just dont feel natural. just my opinion.
