lefty throttles

[motoxxx009]

hey i was thinking about getting a lefty throttle for my new sled and was wondering which ones people perfer? i had a gold finger before but was wondering if there are any that work better or what everyone seems to be using any help?!?!

 

[Tunderin' RT]

I know guys that make their own with bycicle cables and handles, but I will be buying the goldfinger for the scud. I like some actual machine work done on the parts that are on my sled.

i have a powermadd lefty and really like it! the flipper is a little bigger than the goldfinger, and also easier to put on!!!! just my $.03!!!!! and can't wait to hear from the guys saying just learn to ride better and you won't need one!

It's true isn't...I like the times, both, that a guy hops on his sled and brabs the brake...ooops that was the goldfinger and now he hits his buddies sled...lol...twice I've seen it.

I have had a Lefty's on my 98 Rmk for 3 years and loved it ever since.Just have to remember to put in the lock out pin when not in use!:d

 

[SLEDBUNNYRACING]

And that there is the KEY...always have the pin in when not being used....even when you park...accident waiting to happen.

i agree been rideing my whole life and about 12 years in the mountains and i've never needed a lefty ,it may have been nice a time or two but when in doubt pin it

 

[Pappillion]

I have the goldfingre lefty, and i love it. I don't use it unless my wife gets my sled into a pickle. She has a nack of parking right inside tree wells. The only problem i have had is that the trottle freezes up when it gets below 25. Wakes you up really quick if your not paying attention.

 

[rmking600]

can you take a left handle and use as a finger throtle for a regular throtle. will my cable fit

A few weeks ago I was riding one of my brothers sleds.
It has a left hand throttle and pin was in.

Coming down the mountain in the trees a branch or tree hit the gold finger.
This twisted it on the bar and away I went 3/4 throttle.

Into the trees,over 5000.00 damage to the sled.
I guess it came loose and turned on the bar.
