pull the plug and spin it without for the first 15 to 30 seconds.. if there is a problem it will minimize the damage..

I personnal think they are much easier. Especially right hand turms hard on a berm. Twist throttle's have alot of myth's on quads but for the most part the faster riders always have them. I really don't have a choice because of a bad break in my wrist and hand I can no longer work a thumb throttle well..

if you got to a national mx race, all the pros use a thumb throttle, but i agree with you on the right hand turn statement, but it must be hard to lean into a left hand turn with a twist throttle on a quad because quads dont tilt with you the way bikes do. It seems like a long, awkward stretch for your arm. But i do think it would be great for XC and desert racing.... but not MX or casual trail riding. Seems too awkward.

-just my 2 cents

That is the TORS throttle wiring. you have to cut each lead and splice them together to dissable the TORS function.. I did this down by the head tub right where the TORS wires leave the may connector and run up to the thumber.
