hey guys im running a 14x48 with a 23 hp mb and my question is has anyone cut the handle down to run the new billet throttle control if so is it harder to steer and to lift out the water....also i need exhaust and a carb kit...air filter etc.. im wanting to make some serious upgrades and run them sd boys out on the river for some $$$ |

Lt will never be as fast as a service drive. Sd has gear reduction so it can turn a bigger prop and push more h2o. Lt is straight from engine so only thing you can do is increase rpms which decreases engine life Sent via telegraph |

yes, cutting down the handle will increase tiller torque. give up on outrunning sd motors. not happening |

You can take a stock plastic throttle lever and ream it out with a dremel tool and make it work on the lt. I did it for a customer and he loved it. Sent from my ADR6350 using Tapatalk |

are you talking about the stainless throttle lever on mudbuddy's website? i dont see why you'd have to cut the handle for anything, unless if you REEEAAALLLYY wanted to have some kind of shorter throttle cable, which is just dumb.. dont shorten you handle, its a longtail.. |
