New is spendy but used seems reasonable. Could always make your own with a MTB thumb shifter. They work better as they are infinitely adjustable unlike the oem notched throttle pull knob.

Cruiser Dan at American Toyota.
Or you could make your own for about $20.

i was wondering.. because ever since i started coming to this site i've seen many references to "cruiser dan".. is he more linked into the system than "toyota tom" of wellesley toy?? because tom always goes the extra mile to try to locate parts in the toyota data banks..

speaking of wellesley toy.. who remembers Ren? That guy must have been so sick of looking up parts for me and my buddy paul when i was restoring my rig..




oh yeah.. is there a link anyone can point me to where someone made their own throttle set up?

CDan is the parts guy at a dealership in New Mexico I believe. Has tons of OE cruiser stuff, tell him you are
from IH8mud and you get a discount. Example, I needed a new fuel tank for my 40, priced it at the dealers, long wait "if we can get it". Called Dan, had it in 5 days and it was $50 cheaper including the shipping.
