Fat Bob Throttle control?
I'm picking up a 2009 Fat Bob this weekend in Colorado, and riding it back over 900 miles. I was wondering if the 2009 came with the twisting star throttle control standard? If not, is it something that can be installed pretty easy?

I think the throttle lock has been standard for HD for a long time. My '91 had it, and my 08 does, and I've seen it on 09s. Unless you've got cruise control like the touring bikes they should have it.

I haven't personally read the owners manual, but somebody on another post said:
In my manual, it's on pg. 37 in the Controls and Indicators section under Throttle Control Grip.
" To reduce rider fatigue on long trips, a spring-loaded throttle friction adjustment screw (10) is located at the bottom of the throttle grip clamp on non-cruse equipped models."

I've used the Throttle Mate for several years. Works well & you can't beat the price.
