What are the dis/advantages of a twist throttle for MX,Dunes,XC, etc. What is the best brand. This is for a 400EX.

Personal preference is the only issue. Whatever you like better. Personally, I like twisters.

Magura & Motion Pro are the two leading ones. I had a Magura on my first quad. The nice thing about the Magura was the two position spool which allowed two degrees of rotation, one for enduro or XC, and another for MX.

i think it is all what you want. all the pros use them but it will not make your quad faster (only you) if your thumb jets sore very much for the rides you take them the twist might be for you.
