grizzly700 Posted November 12, 2008 Report Posted November 12, 2008 i been riding twist since i was 4 and liked it till i got my grizzly. since im always riding tight trails and supersteep hills, really its just i make random paths through my woods and creek. i like the thumb on it but i love the twist on my banshee. but all u sissy's out there crampin up, u keep riding just cause how fun it is. and i know about crampin cause i cut off the whole end of my thumb so i have to completely twist my hand to use a thumb throttle and that shit cramps!!

Holy hell, first time I've heard of that too lol. I have had 3 dirtbikes and my banshee has twist throttle too. It doesn't phase me to get on a 4-wheeler with thumb throttle though, just get used to both and then it won't even matter anymore. Quote
boneyardbanshee. Posted November 13, 2008 Report Posted November 13, 2008 You can always spend a few bucks and buy the extension for the thumb. I dont have 1, but I was thinking about it. But why buy something that I really dont need. I dont really get thumb cramps or anything. Since I got mine I have had zero issues with cramping. Got mine from Casscade. Looks bad ass and it is large enough you can use your whole hand to tromp on it when draging. It was damn expensive though. I saw a plain extension at a Cabelas once though. It was like 10 bucks. Universal application. Quote
