Aftermarket controls serve a number of purposes. Using my decrepit-yet-soon-to-be-winning-racer Li150 as an example, the stock controls are so decayed as to be unusable. What's more, the placement of the controls is unsuitable for racing. Also, I'd like to save what's left of them in case I need spares for my street scoot. Aftermarket controls can be superior to stock units, too. They may be more easily attached to drop handlebars, they can provide greater control, and they can often be adjusted to match the rider's wants. Plus, they look cool. |
| Better models of quick action throttles have two or more interchangeable ratios, allowing the rider to keep his or her wrist at the correct angle throughout the full travel of the control. There are a variety of models made in alloy or plastic. Call your favorite shop for details, suitability to your needs, and prices. Expect to pay $20 to $70 for a quick action throttle. |
