el diablo, did your terry cable thumb work with the stock cable? the cable that works on my terry cable work on my honda thumb throttle as well. maybe a newer honda will work too

No, the ball that is swedged on to the end of the cable is a different size.

Anybody know of any thumb throttle that is a straight swap to the zilla and work with my stock cable? I was thinking maybe ltz400. Mine has a lot of slop not just in the bushing but also where the thumb lever joins the cable lever.  I
