Old skool BMX metal grated edge pedals were shin eaters
 
got my pedals, carb and offset intake today, because of the slight adjustment my throttle cable is now SUPER slack, can easily pull it like 2-3" inches, needless to say i'm getting ZERO pick-up and go, my grips are s**t anyway, so i might as well replace that 16 year old cable / throttle, any suggestions to go with that BoFeng carb?

Throttle assembly / new killswitch

this is what i've been eyeballing, but it's 1:30 in the morning, and i've got booze and thc in my body, won't buy anything til tomorrow at the earliest, so suggestions would be welcome, my current cable is so cheap/old it doesn't even have that metal bent piece for adjustments

Those look good to me. If your left grip is in good shape, buy a set that matches that grip. If you have a compressor, you can use it to blow off the old grip.

looks like the kits come with both grips, cable, and new killswitch, so I'm golden....assuming 36" is long enough...i have a feeling it won't be, but whatever, if i have to buy a longer throttle cable, no biggie

I was thinking, if your grips match the ones you ordered, then you won't have to change the left hand grip. Of course a thumb throttle is great too, especially if you like the grips you have now.

My grips now are terrible, they're hard plastic, there's no cushion, at all on them, they look like some $3 toy, lol
Yea, just turf them then. I got a set of comfort grips in a kit once, those were nice. Canadian Tire sells those comfort grip, if you wanted to go with a thumb throttle.

You rest your palm on the wide part, and thumb throttle is easier on the Arthur's itis.
