Re: thumb throttle

tho i've never seen it done, i'm sure it's possible.

came across this awhile back when i was tryin to find hb adaptors.

http://webstore.technologyservicesma...SD=1&Item_ID=3

it's for atvs n' **** but it looks like u can just flip it to other side. (assuming atvs have the same 43mm diameter as the f4is. and u may have to facricate some thing in it for the throttle return cable (not sure if u'll even need it)

still, wait for some others to reply. i'm sure it's been done be4.

Re: thumb throttle

you wont need the return cable the spring on the TB's is plenty strong, thats usually the one of the first things i pull off my bike to make it stunt ready and the thumb throttle is relatively easy.

yeah you don't need the return spring...i used a yamaha blaster thumb throttle and just stuck the f4i cable in there no problem...(only used it one day)

mousetrapping is a little bit of an issue

pretty nice for circles though
