zach45 Posted October 5, 2007 Report Posted October 5, 2007 i would think they are for drag racing.. Quote
dekker Posted October 5, 2007 Report Posted October 5, 2007 I have a plastic one. Wish I could find a nice smooth one too! Quote
tyguy Posted October 7, 2007 Author Report Posted October 7, 2007 yeah i have a plastic one too and id like the aluminum one but they are 50$. why do you think they would be for drag? just wondering. Quote
castor927 Posted October 18, 2007 Report Posted October 18, 2007 aluminum throttle tubes were originally for dirtbikes. if you crash with plastic tube, chances are you will break the throttle, and your day, or race, would be over. or worse, it could stick. the aluminum tube will not break. only downfall is it will require maintenace. use a good name brands' cable lube on the tube, make sure there aree no nicks on bar, etc. most of the twist throttle kits have some kind of dirtbike throttle housing. i have the motion pro vortex throttle on my banshee. as far as its' concerned that is just late model honda cr throttle housng that is grey rather than black. the cr pro they sell is from older crs.
