Exceptionally, I am running again this feature because this cool internal throttle was no more available during a very long time while still being requested by many who will be happy to know that it’s again in stock.
This internal throttle system is an original made in the USA by The Garage By Austin Weiss, doesn’t require any welding, is fitted with 6 bearings, 5 of which are radial and 1 being a needle bearing. It is approved for road use and all the original models are engraved with “Streamline” a way for you to know that you will get from the company a lifetime warranty.
Austin also markets internal brake and clutch lines and fittings. Lines are Kevlar reinforced nylon 3/16 tubing made to be routed inside the tubing of handle bars and frame. Fittings are offered in straight and 90 degrees, both with 3/8-24 thread, the Just drill your holes in your frame and route the hose. Replace the fittings that you want to have routed internally. Then route the hose through out and push to connect the end of the hose to the fitting. No ferrules to lose, no wrenching etc. Call 772-261-1938.

I have ran one of these for years without issues…very smooth and easy to work on. I found drilling out the slider makes it easier to install. Not the best company to deal with.
Austin Weiss could not be reached during a couple of years! What’s going on?
Had one installed on a bike I kept 3 years before selling. Nice & easy. No trouble with it.
this has been made in Sweden for decades by

Thanks for the Link… I think I’lll run out and learn to read Swedish…!
My humble advice:
Make peace with a 1.25inch dia handlebar – send your wish list to Exile Cycles – they will make up the entire thing for you, from an internal throttle to an internal twist grip clutch (a smart alternative for a foot clutch), with a ‘hidden switch system’ (in the grips or the bar). Not sure why anybody would want to consider anything else.
Thank you Cyril. I was wondering when I read the original…
So, do you do any reporting on the back story? Can we expect one of the best internal throttles around to become an urban legend?
We completely understand your frustration, and owe the community an explanation.
For 8 years, Streamline Designs was a partnership between Austin and his father. Austin invented many amazing motorcycle innovations and focused solely on his craft, building and customizing spectacular vehicles. His father took care of the financial and customer service end of the business.
Austin trusted his father completely even amidst some complaints from vendors. Eventually, Austin discovered that his father was selling his ideas to other companies and embezzling every cent he could from the company and Austin personally.
Austin was devastated, cleaned out, and faced with a long and expensive legal battle against the man he trusted the most. Sadly, he was forced to close his doors while the legalities played out.
After a very length and draining, (both emotionally and financially) legal battle, he won the sole rights to his creations, his patents, and his finances.
He then built his business back from the ground up with a skeleton crew of guys that were willing to help him rediscover his vision.
Now, we’re back and stronger than ever, as The Garage By Austin Weiss. We were back at Daytona this year with our Grind Hard Stay Humble Board Tracker, and took home 1st place for Special Custom at the Boardwalk classic!
We have moved production of our internal throttles in-house, and we are ready to provide the best service out there.
As Austin’s personal assistant, I am more than happy to answer any questions you may have. I have a combined 13 years of experience in the motorcycle and customer service fields. The company that was “hard to work with” has been replaced by a well oiled machine.
Our throttles will be on our website soon, but for now, you can purchase them on eBay:
