I met this guy in Daytona and he took the stock throttle cable and made a foot throttle.

I met a Spyder rider who was riding a SE5 with only a left arm. It seemed to work out o.k., but I don't know about the throttle.

thanks guys the foot throttle would work great, but have to try to find something that is a kit style or something along thos lines to make it work for us....liability thing:gaah:

Maybe something like a thumb throttle from a fourwheeler mounted on the left.

Try these links. I think they are pretty much the same., but it's a start. And they're manufacturerd...liability thing.

Thanks Don, I think the snowmobile left hand throttle will be the best for this guy! thanks for the help everyone!:2thumbs::2thumbs::2thumbs:

This could be about the only option but, (you know I have to throw in a but) could get very tied-some during a long distance ride.. Is there a reason why you couldn't hook up a regular TWISTER type throttle on the left instead of the right? If he plans on a SE this should work, I'm thinking off the top of my head you may have to relocate the paddle shifter.. Interesting to see what you come up with on this one if he decides to go forward with the deal.. Interesting for sure..

You might check out throttlesense or somebody that makes left hand throttles for snowmobiles. They are made for riding mountains so you can hang off the side like this.
