Has anyone ever ridden a bike with a 1/8 throttle?

im thinking of putting one on my 49cc pitbike

it would hit powerband after twisting 10 degrees !!!

take a look.

A 1/4 or 1/8 turn throttle doesn't make your bike quicker so it won't be hitting powerband any sooner. It's just personal preference I think. I like the short throttles but Dad likes his full one.

they are good for people with less movement in thier wrists. on my race bike i have one and would like one on every bike i ever own

i like them because you get on to full power quicker, its good when your coming out of corner and such...

i found i didn't have to double twist a throlle to use it all

yeah i like them because you can go through your full range of throttle in one quick motion, i'd imagine theyre probably good for race bikes when your either on or off the throttle.
