    YOOOOOO I just added that thumb throttle and went on a 50 km (31m) ride and it was amazing f@^k the stock one it is garbage like night and day. I bout one before and didn't work so I sent it back. After watching your video bought another one and spliced the wire and rewired it and it worked like a charm . Thanks a mill will upload video soon

    Thank you so much for this video. I bought my Wolf King GT Pro before Christmas. Glad mine came with the fuses and chargers to help prevent the fires reported earlier in the year. I still ride motorcycles from time to time but done with moto crossing. I am up there in years and bones and joints may not appreciate the jarring as much. That goes for my aggressive inline skating too. I still do outdoor speed skating, recumbent long distance rides in the mountains, skikes and this scooter. I like weird things. You are right about the Northwest weather. I am in Cali but my wife's family stays in Hood River, Oregon. One summer visiting I went for a skate on a summer, sunny day...came back soaked...on a warm summer sunny day. Quick shower came over the mountains, got me and then left. WTF!?!??!?! Anyway, thanks for the throttle tip. That stock throttle does urk me. That dead spot and then the sudden surge kick really makes me paranoid when initially applying throttle. After I am going I am fine. I am going to order that thumb throttle you like to try it out. Seems more comfortable..like you can rest your thumb pressed against bar vs hovering there in the air.

    Potentiometers easily have problems over time. For those of us that grew up with volume controls that caused this bad static noise when you turned it the fix we all learned was turn it back and forth really fast and it would temporarily fix issue. With a throttle being a failure point for enjoyment of scooter it’s best to get a brand name like a domino. All the testing can be done off the scooter hook a DVM and read the resistance as you turn the throttle and see how linear it is and how repeatable along with when the resistance starts and if it jumps at any point. So booking all these up is only needed once you screen the bad throttles out .

One thing that's been working for me in these first two days of ownership is placing the tip of my thumb at the base of the throttle where it rotates, then using the palm of my hand to squeeze the stock throttle. Makes a HUGE difference in granularity you can get with the stock throttle. I hope this helps someone.

A cautionary tale if your planing on letting a mate ride it for the first time after charging etc... As for the throttle, im wondering if a spare apollo phantom throttle, (a bit like the bafang) might plug in and work fine without the modding? Anyone know? (ps. thanx for the offer to help get me sorted with a bafang throttle ginger) But im pretty happy (and used to) with the 4mm super glued rubber strip on the base of original throttle to pad it out higher so you know when the powers coming in.

Mine's being password locked from day one so I wouldn't count on that. Changing the torque setting on the front hub on mine does not match the display graphs as power is constantly being switched between rear and front hubs according to it but the scooter remains smooth and powerful. What ever they flashed that nice TFT display with needs review.

    Hey Ginger! My wolf GT kicks every now and then when I get back on the throttle.. is the throttle the issue or is it the controller? It only happens like once a ride. If so can you send me a link to your favorite throttle

    Can I add the thumb throttle to my Dualtron Victor Luxury? I tired them all, but I prefer the thumb. The finger almost.caused me an accident because it's too close to the brakes.

    Wow you're the scooter scientist Mr ginge 😂 so putting the volts u to 60v do you loose range also on the battery display would it be safe not go pass the last bar on the battery symbol to prevent any safety issues/surges . So am I right in thinking that any throttle can be used on our king gt pro as long as it is wire to your diagram.

    The problem cant be in the throttle. It doesnt make sense. My guess is, power surge is not a power surge at all. People are not used to this kind of power. And stock throttle has strange power delivery (dead zone).

    @@GingerOnWheels Hello Ginger Boko here Writing from my firends account. You blocked me? First of all, could you please tell me in what way have I insulted you? And you blocked me. Dude? Sry I cant help you if you feel insulted. Maybe it is some truth what you have written about yourself. (really dunno) And yes. It is very weird that throttle could be the problem. Maybe I missed something in your last 2 GT videos. But you were describing some mysterious power surges. You tried to eliminate this surges with changing to different types of throttles. As you describe it in the video, some of them are better, some not, some of them kick... OK. But there were no power surges on any of them, only on the stock one. So as far as I understand from the video (and video name), changing the throttle would fix this power surge problem. How is that possible and what is the logic behind it? Some strange power surge could be sofware related, but how is this throttle related? Maybe this cruical info is missing in your video. Should be really easy to proove yor statement with scooter lifted. Maybe more scientific approach would be better. My main question would be: Are we talking here about power delivery or unexplained power surges? Also after extensive research on FB, there is not one person who could describe the problem in detail. Could explain the pattern when this happens etc... All they I see is: "When I push the throttle there is some strange power surge". Yes ofcourse there is. You drive a 9000w - 2x40A scooter. Ratio of users with surge problem is 50/50. Why dont we all have the same problem than? I doubt this is a batch problem case. I would say that in the end its all about the feeling throttle gives you and how you as a driver get used to it.

    The password on the display in theory will prevent it from being able to turn on again by itself but when it happened on my ride it didn't necessarily shut down and boot back up. It just flickered on and off. So I'm not 100% sure. But between that, and raising the minimum voltage from 58 to 60. And promising myself to never run the battery down that low again. I just pray it won't happen anymore.

    Even if it was a faulty throttle, the chimp grip required to use it is just silly. The up and down thumb has no dead spot and is also way more comfortable to use.

    I fit a 3d printed twist throttle adapter to that style of up/down thumb throttle on one of my scooters(G2 Pro) and it was pretty fun, but dangerous. Had to dismantle cruise control(which I always use on thumb throttles but never trigger) and it would get stuck at speed...always wanted to try a legit twist like the emove cruisers, considered swapping out a trigger throttle for that stock style that pushes in but ended up sticking with the trigger(on Apollo Ghost) I wish I could test one out before I spend $100 on it, but now I'll prolly ditch the thumb throttle idea seeing how pushing sideways looks like an awkward movement. I rode atv's before ever owning a scooter so thumb throttles were my assumed preferred throttle....but one that pushes in so horizontally seems strange. meh.

I need to know where the green and red wire is connected? Any assistance is greatly appreciated. Thanks Derrick

    If haven’t swapped them yet it just won’t work if the wrong way. Would have been better to just identify what each wire is rather then just swap these two. I had bought the thumb throttle and just plugged it in at first and it did nothing then swapped the two wires and it worked. I recently just bought a nice DYOL thumb wheel throttle and wire are labeled on that so once I hook it up and it works I’ll beable to confirm which color wires on kaabos plug are which. Guessing black ground and red power and white speed signal
