 Anyone ever install a throttle pedal... instead of the grip Just wondering if anyone has installed a pedal like in a go kart instead of using the hand throttle? I have a beavertail and I'm not a fan on pushing down the little ball constantly with my palm. Anyone give it a try? Let me know.
thanks!

Re: Anyone ever install a throttle pedal... instead of the g I wouldn't do it too much could go wrong if the tiller came out your hand when your standing on it imo. check out some brake/clutch levers or maybe a bps throttle would be a little easier on your hand.

Anyone ever install a throttle pedal... instead of the grip Mount it on top of the handle like a GO-Devil. Then, you can wrap your pinky around it to operate the throttle. That's how I do it.

Re: Anyone ever install a throttle pedal... instead of the g If you're having to hold the knob the whole time the lever doesn't have enough friction. Tighten the center nut enough so the throttle doesn't return to idle.
