I just put the Exile internal throttle on mine. Love it so far, high quality piece. They have the whole kit, throttle unit and cable. They also make a matching setup for the clutch side with cable. Not the cheapest out there, but you know by now, you get what you pay for!

I used V-Twin part number 36-0575, which is I think indentical to streamline design just not as expensive.. Ive had it on for about six months with no issues. Its very smooth rolls on three types of bearings. Comes with cable a complete kit. If you are going to go clean bars dont forget the internal brake line... smooth

I got one of those v-twin units, but decided on the Exile setup as I was running their grips, and everything is designed to work together perfectly. Side by side impression was the Exile is much higher quality, and it's made of steel (not aluminum) so it can be welded into the bars. Plus the o.d. and length of the exile unit allows the use of a wider selection of aftermarket grips. Dan, if you want the v-twin, I'll sell it to ya. PM me.

Hey Joe, how hard was the install through those bars??

Your brake is internal too? Is it part of the kit?

I used the stream line internal throttle.. But will use the exile next time.. The brake and clutch lines can be done with the Russell 3/16" brake lines and fittings.
