Hand throttle

[green40]

At the last trail cut Gary was showing me the cool way that he put a brake
lock in the cab of his 40. He set it up so that on a hill he can lock his front
brakes up and then slowly release pressure again as he rolls back up the hill.
We had talked about a hand throttle that would allow you to use both feet
on the peddles while giving gas with your hand.
I got home and looked online and found a kit for $30 or so made for a Jeep.
I printed off the mounting instructions and it looked pretty simple.
Off to the junk pile and this is what I came up with. I did spend $9 at the local
bike shop for 5 ft of cable.

I've seen that setup on a few rigs, how's it working for you?

Haven't had a chance to use it on the trail, but in the driveway it works great!

yup, I've seen a few of those set-ups. Works pretty slick. I've also seen some that have a way to lock it in place to act as a "fast-idle" if you have an on board welder or air.
