Post Throttle lever upgrade
What are you guys using? I've got the 1 inch tiller bar and most all the brake levers I'm finding online are 7/8

I use the Gator tail lever for 1" handles. $60 plus tax with a cable.

I got a 7/8" one from Mud Buddy and had a machinist where I worked bore it out to 1". I coated it with that plastic coat they make for pliers handles. Ok in terms of ergonomics but could be better. This was when GTR only had plastic POS ones

I saw a guy use this one on an old thread and I ordered it and put it on today. Had to file my cable end but got it in there and installed. Feels comfortable but haven't had it on the water yet.

I reeled out a old bike lever from 3/4 to 7/8 with a die grinder and some drum sanders don't see why you couldn't do the same
