[QUOTE="holyroller1, post: 141759, member: 23836"] I ride both atv's and dirt bikes. I can say for me twist is far superior. You bring up using the front brake. Think about how you grip the bar. Your thumb is very important in holding onto the bar. If you need to have your thumb on the throttle and your finger/s on the brake you lose your grip on the bar big time. Especially for me it is very hard to brake with my thumb on the throttle, with twist you still have a good grip on the bar. Also if you ever ride aggressively on a quad with thumb throttle you know it is very awkward to make sharp right turns. Most of the time when I am making these turns I have to reach around the front of the grip with my index finger to use the thumb throttle. It is hard to explain without actually doing it. Try it sometime on a quad in a tight right turn. If the quad was not my wife's main ride I would convert it to twist in a heartbeat. Just my opinion. [/QUOTE]
