Default banshee: twist or thumb

Well now..yall are just some big tuff boys...I would like to see one of you go 30 mins on my shee..Holding them carbs open..and not say your thumb dont hurt...[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

If your TORS system is removed, buy a Motion Pro throttle cable and find a thumb throttle from a 400ex or 250r. These throttles are twice as easy to use....
Good Stuff Zilla..

Default banshee: twist or thumb

i had a twist throttle on my lt250r quadracer and i totall did not like it. i have always rode with thumb and this was the first bike i owned with a twist. it was really hard for me to turn and hang on when flattracking. i eventually sold the bike. i'm not to fit myself and on my banshee i do sometimes get cramps and i'v been drinking gatorade on hot days and riding as much as i can to prevent cramps. note- you can work out all you want but i believe actually going out and riding is the best. you use muscles that when working out wont. imo.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

A thumb throttle is much better sealed than a twist so for mud the thumb will usually be less maintenance. I run a twist on Bansh that is used only in dunes and the stock thumb on 400EX for trails and light mud.
