I put one on my quad and lets just say. Cat walk bumper skid to a bail to the quad slamming into the neighbors shed. Took it off instantly.
I just remove the sensor from the throttle block, Duct tape the button down, then install a zip tie over the button and then coil it up and stuff it inside the baggy under the hood. I installed a IQR throttle block on my sled and they don't have a TSS slot, but uses the same throttle lever. Super stout too.
Resistor
Take the switch out and measure the resistance across the plug with the plunger. Install a jumper. Easy.

Also run the cat plastic flipper from the race sled. Very strong and cheap, I keep a spare in my riding pack.
What he said. Just tape the switch down and it is bypassed then stuff it wherever you want. I hate those stupid switches. Almost spent the night last year because it wouldnt let the sled run the same day the throttle stuck wide open multiple times and the switch didn't even do anything for the sled. Absolutely worthless

I don't usually post but I have to jump in here. Has anyone actually tried on the '13 cause as far as I know '12 was the last year that u could tape down the TSS and stuff it away. I'm almost certain the '13 will not allow this. Please someone tell me I'm wrong cause I'd love to put a billet block on my 13 but didn't think it was possible

Just to be sure, you have it out and ride it that way?
As do I
I initially took mine out and zip tied it. Then built the connector just yo clean it up a bit. TSS not necessary contrary to some beliefs...

Care to elaborate on what you did that worked?
Yes I have the TSS out of the throttle block and ride it. It is in the bag under the hood now. I used my stock thumb throttle lever but had to drill out the holes for the bolts on the new block. The Powermadd block is set up for the Cat F7 thumb throttle lever. I carry a spare because after drilling, the plastic is a little thin. I ended up changing out the stock block because set screw was stripped when i bought it and it would come apart while riding. It would make the the throttle stick open. I think RSI has a block now that keeps the TSS. That wasn't an option at the time I switched mine.
Yes, I have done this to my 13 along with my 12... You are good to go!
- Resistor fix
Went on line to to an electrical connector supplier bought the matching connector to mate with the TSS switch - took the TSS switch out, put an ohmmeter on it - I can't remember the value at the moment - but measured the resistance..... Went to electronic shop and bought 1/4 watt resistor, made a wire loop with the resistor in the middle - utilizing the new plug - heat shrink and seal the unit - plugged it in and away to the races...
sumitro I b2dp - I do believe this is the connector that is used - and I do believe that 6.7ohms is the value - so 7.5 will work fine - if you cant find 7.5 put 2 15's in a series......

Everybody still having good luck, or any problems from using the resistor set-up??
Im going to make one, and at least carry it with me for now. Had a cutting out problem and if it returns ill plug in the resistor to see if it clears it up. Then leave it in if it fixes it!
