Any reason to switch over to a honda thumb throttle on the dales?
What cable needs to be used?
Thanks -Chris

I am just the opposite, i have been on bikes and find it much easier with a twist throttle, just takes a little time to get the hang of it on a quad

The Honda throttle is just more comfortable. A throttle cable off of a Honda 300 fourtrax 4x4 works. You'll have some extra cable to deal with, but you'll have the Honda throttle.

I've got a honda throttle on mine and love it. I got a custom made cable from somebody on this forum (can't remember who?) Works like a charm although it was pricey.

I was hoping a 400ex throttle would fit sad.gif I even have an extra throttle cable. Anyone else have any info?

I have the Honda thumb on my bikes. I used the Honda 4x4 cable for awhile, but it was long and in the way. I got the last 2 that hellbound had, actually a conversion cable made by motion pro for the honda throttle but the same length as stock. If we can get some interest, I'll order 10 of them (minimum) and get them coming. They are a little pricey though ( I think like $40)

I would most likely get a spare from you Doug. The 40 bucks was worth it to me.
