Runnin throttle assembly upside down?

Anyone do this? I don't know how it would work but my cables keep gettin chewed from crashing and I have heard of people flippin their throttle around.

Anyone got pics of their setup like this on their f4i?

Hows it work tho...you just install the box upside but keep the tube in the same place and it works just fine?

You'll probably have to drill another hole in the bar 180 degrees away from the original one for the nub, I cant think of any other problems.

The only thing Im thinkin about is how with the actual tube work when you twist it...cuz you would think if its flipped then the tube wouldn't turn like before cuz it would be further.

you really can't mess anything up just loosen the base of the cables where they go into the throttle tube assembly so it can turn..

Re: Runnin throttle assembly upside down?

i dont see it being a good idea cuz when u get into circles ur gonna want quick access to that kill switch it will save ur bike alot, putting it on the bottom would make it alot harder to hit.
