MotulMonsta Posted November 22, 2004 Report Posted November 22, 2004 I'd stick with the thumb throttle. Have you ever tried hammering through the whoops with a twist throttle? Dirtbikes don't count..the ass end on a bike doesn't get all squirrely like an ATV..especialy when your not perpendicular to the face of the whoops. Quote

s_h_c Posted November 23, 2004 Report Posted November 23, 2004 I put 34mm carbs on my bike an ordered a twist throttle on accident. I ended up putting a thumb throttle back on. I had to order another throttle cable to work with the thumb throttle. I ordered it from http://www.terrycable.com/ I find that you fight the front end more when riding hard on an ATV than a dirt bike. That is why a thumb throttle is better on a ATV. Quote
