it's a good pic of the boat but if you look that is an x metal throttle. great feel, just set it further away from your grips and it's like butta. Great quality work. http://www.x-h2o.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=18992&d=1169494081

yep, my absolute favorite now... and I WAS a die-hard angle-pull UMI-trigger fan. Not anymore, I cant stand the hook at the end of the umi now.

I like how flat the x-metal is, no hook at the end and all edges are rounded.

Plus the flatness of it makes it feel more like a OEM throttle (which alot of people still swear by)
sorry, I dont have a pic right now, could possibly take one tonite

do a search...:biggrin:

no really I wasnt trying to be sarcastic. I was just making sure you knew that xmetal had a website with all of their products on it.:biggthumpup:

yep I knew. I have the website photos for all the finger throttles I will have in the write up. I just need real world installed photos.

Mine xmw trigger is hooked like in the pic. I filed it down after getting tired of the hole in my glove catching on it.

I have yet to ride with mine but it looks great and feels good. The only gripe I had was you can still see the machining marks on the trigger part (as shown in that pic) I would have thought for the price they could have gotten rid of that.

 

[onesojourner]

can you get me an installed picture?

 

[onesojourner]

still need an install picture. does any one have any beef with these? I have not found any defects other than the finish thing.

Sorry, I have mine installed just no pic yet. I forgot last night Ill try and get one tonight if somebody doesnt beat me to it.
