Dave, Thanks for video, have to get one of those kill switch thingies. Ended up over the bars on Saturday, head first into the snow. A bit hard on the neck. My as well get the brake lever as well.
Aww. The kill switch launch. Jumped clear over a road a couple seasons ago. When i Landed on the other side Of the road from high up. I hit the 3’ of snow and the sled lost huge momentum causing me to roll my hand forward and shut off the snowmobile. Two full cart wheels ahead of the sled ending up face down and then the sled ran me over. Only hurt my pride and my visor but man I was lucky I was lying flat when the snowmobile come up on me. Only three witnesses thank God LOL. Ever since then I’ve had O rings around my Killswitch

Mabe it's just me

But should the tether be more central to body

Having it on the wrist, to me would seem like it get wrapped around the bars all t h e time

I find even centralized to body it can, as most are on the rh side of the steering stem


does not get caught with me, cheers dave

I put the tki lever on my sled last year. It worked well, but I found that the aluminum really sucked the heat from your finger compared to the plastic levers. Make a difference with your finger on the brake all day. It made me understand the heated brake lever isn't actually a novelty, but a worthwhile upgrade

Isn't that just the best.
Have had lug tracks and dirt bike tracks across my back several times.
I am cheap and use ordinary rubber bands on kill switch now.
