oh yea same with my z, wicked responsize, i would rather it be a little stiffer than it is[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img]

And whoever says that if you get a Twistie and hit a bump, Your not going ot give it more gas, I gaurantee because I own a dirtbike and have for several years now, I go over rythmic jumps, big jumps, little jumps, bumps... and even out of no where there pops a whole. You will more than likely just give it less gas instead of where you would hit a big whole with a thumb, Beings that half your hand on the grip your hand could slip off the grip and *possibly* crash... It's happened before. I prefer a twist over a thumb throttle anyday. Go with the Twist Throttle, You will be more than happy.

Good Luck, Matt


but if your going through woops n falling off the back u will be cranking on the throtle. now if it were thumb u just moove your thumb to the side and get back on the seat.


i would have to say that when your falling backwards with a thumb you try to grip it harder, in turn you push the throttle wide open, i've had it happen before, but i don't really know anything about a twist.

we have a quad with a twist and 4 with thumbs, I prefer the thumbs, although on really long rides, my hand gets tired ( wussy girl).
