Can a half twist throttle be used on a full twist throttle?
When installing a ‘half twist’ throttle make sure the 1/2 hand grip does not rub up against the twisting throttle body. This could ‘lock’ the throttle into the on position providing thrills, spills and chills for everyone. For ‘full twist’ throttles where the entire hand-grip twists this should not be an issue.
