Got this fohttps://i.servimg.com/u/f56/18/09/66/77/dsc01512.jpgr $20 yesterday and I have few questions

I was wondering where I could find a throttle cable for it and also if not sure if this is 31cc or a 49cc but if itwas 31cc would it pull around pretty good

Vid of it running

you can probably get a "build your own" cable from wally world or something. they say its for mikes, but it will probably work as a throttle

oh, when you said throttle, i thought you ment all of it.. i would go with a good brand like motion pro or ASV. if you need just the grips, get OURY. i have them on my honad TRX250 and theyre great, soft, no blisters, even without gloves.. your project though, just my 2 cents

I know what you mean. only thing is that they do go fast hauling a 150lbs person wearing gear for racing a lot.
