Lever throttle converter

An apparatus for throttling a vehicle equipped with an exterior throttle lever actuated near a handlebar, said throttling via actuation caused by rotation of said apparatus around the longitudinal axis of said handlebar rather than by direct personal actuation of the throttle lever, said rotational throttling apparatus comprising:

• a proximal bushing essentially stationed axially encircling said vehicle handlebar in close proximity to its exterior throttle-lever;
• a rotating sleeve having a distal edge and essentially axially encircling said handlebar distally adjacent to said proximal bushing, the distal edge of said sleeve including an extension extending distally a sufficient distance for cooperating rotation-limiting relationship with a distal bushing;
• a distal bushing having a proximal edge and essentially stationed axially encircling said handlebar essentially adjacent to the distal edge and extension of said sleeve, said proximal edge including an extension extending proximally a distance sufficient to facilitate a cooperative rotation-limiting relationship with a distal extension from the distal edge of said sleeve;
• and
• an auxiliary sleeve having a proximal edge and further comprising a finger projection projecting externally and proximally therefrom a sufficient distance for cooperating contact with the vehicle throttle-lever, said auxiliary sleeve sized for rotating mounting around said bushings around said handlebar, said rotating sleeve stationed within said auxiliary sleeve and positioned to maintain said cooperative contact and to maintain said cooperative rotation-limiting relationship.
