Hand throttle for Series 3 Lightweight

Post by inew43 » Mon Feb 07, 2022 10:17 am

I am looking for the pull handle and mounting parts for the hand throttle used on a lightweight ffr series 3.
Any offers? Any ideas?

I don't think I've seen a complete hand throttle come up for sale. But, all the parts are available seperately, bar the protective cap for the rod. Or, you can hope someone has a spare one kicking around.

A pic of the parts, bar the rivnut, a split pin for the rod and the grommet, shown here.

I’m not sure if PA Blanchard are still selling to customers, but they’re worth a try. They had some or all the bits separately in stock, or at least, that’s what the website shows-

If Nick is in the mood, and you ask nicely, he might have a root around (he knows exactly where everything is) and find you some good second hand bits. He’s always been helpful with me in that way.
