  3. if you are getting muddy, you may find that your thumb slips off your throttle on occassion. Here is a quick tip I read about in a magazine to preventthis from happening.

    Go to your local hardware store and pick up some grip tape, cut it to match your throttle size and stick it on. That's it!
