Burke Posted August 24, 2012 Report Share Posted August 24, 2012 Pro's - No thumb fatigue Con's - Whiskey Throttle over bumps... very easy to get hurt. I run a twist on everything, but a dual gasser on my banshee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BUILDER Posted August 24, 2012 Report Share Posted August 24, 2012 Love my twist throttle on my banshee will not ride with a thumb throttle but I can already tell you the majority of the people will tell you it is a bad idea. If you are not use to a twist you can hurt yourself with one. I love min and have no issues at all with it but I have ran a twist on everything I have ever rode.

ClayAiken Posted August 24, 2012 Report Share Posted August 24, 2012 Twist isnt that bad at all you just got to be careful and know what your doing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash and Flare Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 (edited) Had the stock thumb throttle when I bought my banshee in 98, I took it off and put a Motion Pro twist throttle on and damn near killed myself on some whoops at dyracuse atv park. I now have a 250r thumb throttle and will never ever go back to a twist on a quad. I think if you are a straight line guy a twist will be fine, but if you like to turn corners or if there is a chance that your banshee might become airborn I would suggest staying with the thumb throttle.

joey83 Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 I just went twist. Love it. My thumb even gets tired on my honda rancher and it has a super easy throttle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ITFD Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 You have to try both to know what you prefer. I've gone from motocross to quad so I have a preference to twist. Its easier IMO to control the throttle thru whoops and jumps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Longtravel Posted August 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2012 Thanks for the input. I think I will try the dual gas set up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
