Re: Hand Throttle Hookup? - 04-10-2008, 05:09 PM

Hello Again,

Here are a couple more photos of the late style linkage and I'm also including a couple of photos of an extension piece that can be added to the old style hand throttle linkage that extends the leverage a bit and makes even the old system work better. Better, but no where near as good as the late style. Both changes allows the hand throttle to adjust the speed without using your foot to set the throttle. I like this because it allows me to sit on the seat back and fully control the speed of the engine without jumping up and down. The late system works even better because it greatly increases the leverage to the hand throttle so the handle moves more and requires less force to hold a setting.
