My son and I are going to rebuild the minibike he saved up and bought this summer. I want to get rid of the twist grip throttle and put on a thumb style snowmobile style throttle. Anyone have anything? a built in kill switch would be nice too.

I bet you could rig up a decent thumb throttle from a 4wheeler too. let me see what I can find

Thats what was on there, I took it off, he kept grabbing the gas instead of the brake. eventually he will learn, I just think a thumb lever with a cutoff built in would look and perform better. vs the toggle switch cut off on there now. He wants to tear it down completely this winter and go through it all. he wants it painted John Deere green. :) In fact, when I am at the garage working on my Torino, he is there next to me tinkering on his mini bike.
