I bought a push/pull throttle for my RS carbs. Now I am wondering where/what do I do for a starter button and kill switch?

Hmm, I've only seen drag racers use the push/pull throttle from Ape. On street bikes I've seen folks use VM throttle tubes with the matching kill switch/starter button.
I don't know how your are going to fit all that including the brake M/C on the handlebars.
I'm sure if there's a will........1983 GS 1100E w/ 1230 kit, .340 lift Web Cams, Ape heavy duty valve springs, 83 1100 head with 1.5mm oversized SS intake valves, 1150 crank, Vance and Hines 1150 SuperHub, Star Racing high volume oil pump gears, 36mm carebs Dynojet stage 3 jet kit, Posplayr's SSPB, Progressive rear shocks and fork springs, Dyna 2000, Dynatek green coils and Vance & Hines 4-1 exhaust.

Yoshimura used to sell a throttle assembly with kill and starter switch along with a 3 position headlight switch. I have one on my bike but they are tough to find these days.Comment

Dam, so, any GS pre 1980 throttle is push/pull?Comment

As long as they have VM carbs they have a P/P throttle.Originally posted by gearhead13 View PostComment

Just checked the Alpha site for availability of new p/p assemblies for my '79 850.
The superseded number for the grip assy is listed as available at US$1422.68.
The throttle grip is a steal at only $30.
Not sure if the listing is for an ali or plastic replacement unit. The '79 control switches were all ali.

The newer bikes all had push/pull but what I don't know is if they are for 7/8" handlebars.Comment

I found a RH control assy off a Gixxer that is push/pull on ebay. Looks like it would work, just need some wiring. Newer stuff is more plentiful and in better shape and cheaper. For now I was thinking of just a momentary button for starter.Comment
