Internal Throttle

[ccvsgod]

...Who here rocks one?
How complicated is it to assemble?
Any Pictures?

I'm not sure I've seen one here... though it has been discussed. The consensus is that most INT throttles are for 1" bars... the only one you'll probably find that could be made to work is for a honda trail minibike... trail 50 I think.

Hope that helps some.

Seems like a bad idea, my throttle is already stiff enough if I forced it down my handle bars the sharp bends in the cable would totally screw riding up. Probably end up with carpel tunnel.

Really? It seems so...diminutive. I know it's more a chopper thing but was curious if anyone had ever tried it with a cafe racer. I guess it depends on the severity of the bends in your bars, my cable seems like it already winds over and under things. I saw this:

...and it made me wonder, in that Jack-Nicholson-in-As-Good-As-It-Gets OCD way.
