 2015 GTR 35 Throttle Lever
Anyone changed from that crappy plastic lever that Gatortail sends with the motors? If so what did you use?? I had an issue with the throttle cable itself pulling out the plastic lever on freezing wet mornings on my last boat. Thanks

You can get one of the bps throttle levers. Hit up la prop on here I believe he's got them for stock or mikuni carbs.

 Re: 2015 GTR 35 Throttle Lever
Just an FYI: The bps lever takes a LOT of grinding to make it fit a gatortail tiller. Yes it will work, I have one, just wanted to point out it isn't a direct fit. I believe gator tail has their own metal throttle now, friend sent me a pic of it, and iirc it was kinda cheap looking.

Got him to resend the pic of the one he got from gatortail. He said he thought it was like $60 with the cable.

 Re: 2015 GTR 35 Throttle Lever
That looks a lil more comfortable than my bps. It's straighter and not curved like the bps

 Re: 2015 GTR 35 Throttle Lever
Guy I got the pic from said it works good, and he loves it. It doesn't have as much bend as the bps
