JDoza - Is just the pull (throttle cable) sufficient or do you think the push is req'd?
I've been pull only for quite some time.(Almost 2 years) Odo from the RSR talked about it, said he was doing it, and sent me a chrome plug to cover the hole that the push cable used to fill. I've had no issue with just the pull cable...

Thanks JDoza. I am trying to decide wether or not to get the push cable.

I think you'll like the pull only cable. I seem to have a "Better Feel" on the throttle, a little more precise without the push cable. It seemed I was fighting the push cable but didn't realize it until I removed it.

Welcome to the RSC Ape's club. If you like to ride a lot, like I do, then you are going to love your apes. I seem to get a lot of positive comments about them.
