 Throttle mod question Can you replace the standard knob throttle on a LT with a squeeze throttle that would drop back to idle when you let go, like on the surface drives??

Re: Throttle mod question You can do what ever you want! It would be a simple swap out . I actually made a twist grip with an internal cable for my 20hp GDLT ( cable ran through the center of the tiller handle.) It had some people scatching there heads!

Re: Throttle mod question I have seen a couple people do the twist grip on their long tails... Looks pretty sweet.

Re: Throttle mod question Just seems like a twist or a squeeze throttle would be a hell of a lot safer so If the handle gets jerked out of your grip it will drop down to idle atleast In stead of full speed

Re: Throttle mod question Not sure how hard it would be for ya but I'm pretty sure you could install a kill switch with a lanyard.

Re: Throttle mod question i found an old bike someone had set out for the trash, got the brake lever (kept the rest of parts for repairing other bikes) used the rear brake cable, and a throttle kit from www. affordablegokarts.com. very simple to do.
