Re: [ST] Throttle Rocker (old v new design)



I have the Velcro version of the throttle rocker and haven't noticed any
problems with it. 

However, I've never used the original model. Maybe I'll have to nick Rick's
when he isn't looking and give it a try :-)

My understanding is that there was a patent infringement with the
original design so TR agreed to change the design (to Velcro) for the
US market.  I also understand the original design is still available
outside the US...
