Bad, if you start to fall off or get out of shape, you will pull on the throttle when you dont need to.

I think everyone has their own preferences and you should do it if you want.

Actually it would be nice if someone FINALLY do it and not just talk about it. then everyone can point to you as the genius/idiot if it works out or not.

I agree with WaveDemon, you should try it out. Probably not the best for freestyle but for cruising I think it would be pretty cool.

Ha, I was thinking the same thing coming into this thread.
Everyone will tell him no, but I don't think anyone's actually tried it to prove it's a bad idea.

i think itd be difficult to control, as you move your body and handlepole in many different positions, while riding. the typical trigger throttle is 'stationary' on the bars and doesnt change with body positioning. a twist throttle would.

no, i havent tried it. just speculating.

We need someone to be the fall guy for this, once and for all.
It's one of those recurring topics that I've seen since 2003.
I am sure the idea was around before then, too.

Since it works on bikes; mx, trial, enduro, iīd think itīll work on a X2 as well. Itīs a question of preference.
