Thumb Throttles

My wife complains about her thumb throttle being to stiff I had put on a motion pro twist but she does not like it at all. Do the after markets like HPDs thumb throttles work any easier. I had also tried one of the thumb saver extensions but it did not feel right to her. I got her on the squeeze ball now to strengthen up her thumb. But I was just wondering if anyone had tried the4 other thumb throttles and if they noticed a difference.

When she would let off she said instead of just moving her thumb out of the way to let the throttle back off she had to move her whole hand up bacause the extension would put it into her thumb and into her palm. So it would be like your throttle sticking on fast idle if you did not get your hand out of the way.

You might try to find a shorter spring for the slide in the carb. Mikuni sells different tension springs for the slides. You could even try shortening the spring in there now. The best bet is to find the shorter spring though. Make sure the throttle is set right for her riding position and lube the cable and throttle lever.
