I was able to change mine due to someone posting the proper part on this forum
The only issue I had was needing a third arm
The new part only came with a black handle so I retaking the original chrome handle

I replaced my throttle with one and I did run into an issue with the “ears” that the are used to attached the screws. A couple of the ears snapped and since they are made of cast aluminum I had to get a new assembly. This time I fabricated
some SS backing plates to offer more support. I believe they were 3/4” wide and the horizontal length of each side. I also added some fenders washers along with some nylock nuts. I haven’t had any issues so far and the throttle appears to be more secure.
Regards
Mike
