Thumb throttle extender $40 WTF

[Keyser Soze]

I was looking around for a thumn throttle extender and couldnt find anything for less than $40....What the hell its a little widget. Im sure someone on here can make them for much less and turn a good profit. Anyone know of a site that sells the for less than $40 shipped.................If not i'm taping a popsicle to my throttle. May even paint it black.

Be pretty simple to modify something, or just man up! and endure the agony.

My banshee came with the extended lever. I took it off because I didnt like it. It was easier to push but it had a longer sweep.

Cheap easy fix is to switch to a 400EX throttle. Much better design, and easier on the thumb. I was never a big fan of the extended levers.

I like mine, personally. It's probably a little more than you are picturing though and most come with a bearing instead of the plastic stock bushing.

Mine took some getting used to. The ones you see for $40 have the bushing and seal and you will need that bushing because the stock one is junk.

i got the billet silver longer one and its a pain to get used to. but i bet when i put my 34s on it will be nice and easy

I just tweaked my factory one to work for me. I removed the spring inside the the throttle housing (the pwk carb spring is more then enough) and bent the thumb pad to a better suited position. Been riding with it like that for two years now with no problems.

I got one from mooseracing.com for $25 Canadian, they have two different kinds. 1. bolt on and away you go 2. bolt on and adjustable.

 

good luck
