    Loving these videos. They’ve been really helpful. I have the passenger pegs and a throttle via your links (just waiting for the bike!). Are you going to do a video where we can see you try out the throttle?

    you are able to use a throttle on the z1 but you also need to change the controller located inside the seat to unlock the speed and allow the throttle to work its quite easy but will run you around £100 search up z1 throttle conversion or I can provide a link. keep in mind this only apply to the ZG not Z1 which is the US version

The throttle works but if I use the pedals, then the throttle stops working and pedalling is super hard, I have to stop the biz and restart the throttling. Do you have any idea how to fix this? Thanks in advance! Alejandro from Norway

    Hey thread! Getting my S2 soon, this video was instrumental in convincing me that a 3rd party throttle would work on all EU bikes, by the looks of this thread I’m mistaken… It seems some of you are having no joy with the throttle suggested an Amazon with your bikes, Does anybody have any information on whether EU bikes apart from this lucky chap are software coded to not work with a throttle? It doesn’t seem to be any software that comes with the off-road pack sold direct from super 73, no code to make a photo work is that correct? Because if it is they should all work with a throttle right?

    Thanks Simon, I can't explain why others have had trouble. Make sure the app setting is on unlimited and use the spare yellow with it. I took the gamble as the Amazon one was only £20 so I thought give it a go and if it doesn't work then cheap mistake.

    @@cei Thank you for the videos, they've been really helpful! I have found handlebar space is a little limited. I found the throttle a little cramped on the right next to the gears. So, I mounted my throttle next to the left hand grip and moved the controller to the centre bar, I figured that will have least use. The horn has been pushed across to where the bar starts to bend round so not ideal.I've only had a few minutes on the bike so far so will see how that arrangement works out.
