Cant see why not. I personally think the thumb throttles are dangerous. Most likely be able to source one from a mini-moto spares shop.. Loads on eBay

Measure the width of the handle bars to make sure one will fit. Wouldn't worry about the length too much. If the grip turns out to be too long, jut chop it down a little.. Obviously not from the business end..lol. You might need to get a longer cable, but they're pretty generic on quads etc so shouldn't have too much hassle. :smt001
Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects the handle bars to the saddle.
