Twist throttle?

[Herpderplol]

Herro guys, i was wondering what the advantages of having a twist throttle are.

Also, would i need to remove the TORs system to run one?

Would this be a good kit?

both of those are great, or you can by my complete twist throttle, im selling it soon. everyone will say its way to dangerous and sketchy, but you have WAY more throttle control with it really, having a twister just makes it harder to pop wheelies and go on jumps but i did it. i had my twist throttle mastered after a few months of riding. im only switching to a thumb throttle now so i can jump easier

How much would you be looking for? and what turn is it? ik about 1/2 turn and 1/4 turn...

Did you remove TORs system with your twist?

 

[89blaster89]

yea you will need my twist throttle setup and a new cap for your carb. i dont know maybe 20 shipped or parts trade? and what do you mean by turn?

 

[Herpderplol]

its a twist throttle, so you twist it on the handlebar... called turn... there's different amounts.

How much is the new cap to remove TORs? and where do i find one?

I will probably buy new if i do get one

 

[89blaster89]

mine turns like 1/2 maybe lol idk i just ride. and i dont know where to find a cap. put up wanted add

the hole on mine was to small to fit the cable through so I just drilled it out. works fine, gotta love twist throttle adds 20hp

That cover works with stock carb? No adjustments needed, or with I have to do tors delete thing?

 

[Awk08]

that lid fits the stock blaster 26mm mikuni carb, and yes that will eliminate the tors unit on top of the carb, so the brain under the hood will need removed and a new idle screw added to the carb itself instead of it's current location on the tors "brick"

essentially thats a tors delete, but to buy a complete kit, cable and all, is a waste, as you'll be using the twister cable
buy the cap and an idle screw kit with tap and drill.....

So I need the kit for twist throttle, new cover, and new air screw? That's all I would need to buy?

 

[Awk08]

not airscrew....IDLE SCREW KIT, cap and twister kit

 

[89blaster89]

i believe you could also adjust the idle at the top of the carb?

I just unhooked the cable from the thumb throttle and hooked up the cable from the twist. You unhook the cable of the slide in the carb and hook up the cable for the twist throttle.

Please explain how a twist throttle makes it harder to wheelie or jump?
A couple months to get used to a throttle?
If it takes more than a couple minutes it's the wrong application.

In the hands of an experienced operator a twist throttle is no harder than a thumb for any operations.

It is advisable the use handlebar end plugs so that you can wrap the little finger around it to stop the throttle being pulled on when acellerating.

A lower than usuall grip with the wrist level, rather than high at idle will also stop the throttle coming on when the power is applied.

I find that on jumps I have total control over the flight with a twister, I can adjust my attitude with a presice blip, this can be done well with a thumb but so much better with a twist.

My only issues with a twist is on right hand burms and drifts where the bar is far away and I cannot get the power on fully because of my short arms, because my wrist is low.

Yeah, I tried a twister for a very short while because I was running a bike carb.
It didn't take a genius to see the potential for trouble.

it makes it harder because when you wheelie your trying to hold on and when your trying to hold on it pulls the throttle (twists) also i got used to it in minutes and but it took me a few months of riding to wheelie, hillclimb and jump with it note i only ride once every few weekends since my blaster is at my grandpas right now
