Mojave w/twist throttles

Too bad I got on this a little late. I had a twist throttle on my old 250X and here are some of the problems I noticed.
1. Because quads require you to muscle them around using both sides of the bars, the twist throttle makes it hard to keep a good grip on the bars.
2. The twist throttle did not allow for as percise control over RPM as does the thumb throttle.
3. For me, the twist throttle did not work as well as the thumb because unlike a dirt bike where your movements are very smooth. A quad requires a lot more horsing around to make it go where you want and you et a lot of side to side motion. The twist makes it difficult to counter the side to side.
Everyone is different however and you won't know whether it is for you unless you try it.

Well I got the kit, but I'm having a problem installing it. The end of the cable that attaches to the carb (the metal tube) is bent different than the stock. It's taller and bent more at a 90 degree angle while the stock is slightly shorter and bent more like a 45. So when you try to install it, it hits the frame above. I called Motion Pro and spoke to Tech Support (who was very helpful). However, he said the design has been in use since '95 with no changes and should work. But clearly it does not.
Has anyone run into this?
