Post what a piece of shit
while running down the river today on a fishing trip my throttle handle just broke off. its a damn shame you pay this much for something and with just 12 hours on it, it just breaks off. now that I have vented I reckon I need to go out there and Mcgyver something that will hold up.

Yes, the new motors all have metal throttle levers.

From what I have seen, GTR gives the quickest service to those that tell all on the internet.


Most liberals seem to suffer from the same mental condition....it's called stupidity!

Post Re: what a piece of shit
Never had an issue with my GT other then the reverse caliper, but I did have a console drive and will on me next rig. I'll still take a GTR over a mud buddy . Just my preference. For me mud buddy Never crossed my mind. it was either a PD or GT. Mainly due to reputation and a mud motor builder a short drive away instead of states away. There customer service for sure is seconded to none. The main thing that steered me away from MB was just word of mouth From people in my area, not from this web site. Iv never owned one so I can't say anything bad about them. I just prefer to stick with what works for me.

Call GT. THEY WILL SEND YOU ANOTHER. They did for me. They do have a new metal one, at least whom ever I spoke with over there said they did. I milled my handler to accept the BPS before GT came out with theirs.

You are supposed to squeeze the shit out of the brake handle, not the throttle. : )
