Default Internal throttle
anyone know of an internal wire throttle that will work with apes? I've looked at Exile, but can't tell.

Not sure, I have seen internal throttle on both t-bar and ape, so what's after that? Internal twist clutch cable? Clean things up lol

thanks, wanting to clean up the bike. Don't mind the clutch cable because it balances with the front brake line.

I Have been researching internal throttles as well...

Why it is not more popular is a mystery to me...
It's fairly cheap($50-$250) to do, I think it cleans up the front a lot, and isn't labor intense at all.

Keep us posted on your progress

All the internal throttles I've seen are just that......Throttle only..No idle......
For some it is a safety concern.....

I like the look of eliminating the stock throttle/idle cables also. Anyone ever read/heard of an "Internal Throttle" system going wrong/failing?
