Thanks, I will see how i like the throttle as it is now but eventually an issue with my hand may force the conversion as there are times my hand will get painful and lock up into a claw like position...at least with a twist grip i can roll the throttle forward to slow down...not so sure if i would be able to move my thumb off of the throttle in that situation though..
