+--- Thread: Anyone using the Kaoko throttle control? (/showthread.php?tid=7950)
RE: Anyone using the Kaoko throttle control? - GoldOxide_imp - 06-05-2023
During installation, at least on my Kaoka model, the device would "clip into" something on the inside of the handlebar. It was necessary to get that right.
In addition, the weight of the Kaoka device was designed to be an equivalent bar weight. There has been no vibration issues. I am unsure if all models perform similarly, but I reckon Kaoko would try to get consistent behaviour for all supported bike models.

I'm just not sure what size bolt the stock bar end weights use to cross reference and find out if the knock off one will screw into the bar insert threads

I’d be interested in a report on the knock-off if anyone gets one.

No meaningful throttle gadget reviews on AliExpress?
I realize lately there has been in influx of Russian AliExpress product reviews, but still.
