my bike came with a twist throttle but everyone else seems to like the thumb. I have never riddin a bike that was thumb but my sled and jetskis are and i like them but i seem to like the twisty on the bike. what do you guys prefer and why?
 
For alot of what I ride I prefer the thumb throttle. If I had a twist my luck, Id be doing something and peg it. Besides I feel like I have more control with the thumb.
 
THUMB!!!! I'll had twists leave ne in the gass and keep going without me and to me twists just don't work goot on the ruff stuff
 
i love them duel throttles! best of both worlds! especially for long races or rides! gives ur thumb a rest on long straightaways! thumb pump sucks, or put a 400ex throttle on!

Terry Cable duel throttles! they work on warriors, banshees, raptor, 300 ex, 400ex, they dont work on 450rs and yfz 450s!

Thumb all the way. Hard to ride tough and in total control with a twist on an ATV. Do the 90ex lever in a 400ex housing, that's what I run and it made a huge difference in arm pump.
 
i just have a stiff twist throttle. i dont like the thumb throttle wheny our jumping, just seems a bit uncontrolled fo rsome reason
 
you guessed it man i had a y250 before but everybody started ridin quads so i jumped on the bandwagon
 
same here, this is my first quad, thinking about going back too bikes though
 
no i ride with a thumb on my snomobiel and its fine and all just not as strong of a grip on the bars
 
i just dont know what ill like better cuz i like my snowmobiles thumb but it hurts my arm after awhile of riden. i like the twisty but dont like when i hit a bump and not payen attention i gas it when i dont want to i guess ill have to ride a wheeler with a thumb first to see if i like it or not
