Lowracer....missed your post I guess. I....um....took the easy way out. I just backed off the tension nut on the hand throttle, and used the existing cable mounting hardware. Worked very well including the governor. At WOT you can feel the governor acting like a cruise control going up and down the hills. Also, it can be over revved to an extent by pulling the throttle more.
MikeJ, I bought a bunch of off road scooters for the engines, so I had to make my own. I think if you buy just the engine it comes with it. Otherwise.....mine came from Home Depot. It was a Simpson construction part.....1/4 in plate about 8x8 inches. Cost about 12 bucks here....probably about 6 anywhere else. With an angle grinder, drill, and the proper vocabulary they are useful for all sorts of mounting and reinforcement applications. Oooor, in a pinch, they can be used to bolt timbers together.
