Default new throttle

hey guys,

I need to replace my throttle on my bike as i cracked the housing when I got hit by a car. Spookytooth doesn't have one on their website. Who sells throttles that will work for these bikes? any recommendations for a replacement?

most vendors sell them seperately
dax sells both the plastic w/kill switch and the metal w/o switch i believe

Mine just recently broke, the piece that holds the cable inside. I got a replacement at a motorcycle shop locally. Just make sure if you go to a motorcycle shop you get one for 7/8" bars....

I'd go with a real throttle and not one of these chinese things...just so you're sure it won't break again. Someone had posted links recently to some aluminum throttles.
