Any ideas on a good throttle lock? I ride an 07 street glide with no cruise. I can't see spending the money to buy the cruise so I am looking for something besides the little wheel thing. Something easier to use.
I have had a throttle lock on several bikes in the past. They are nice so that you can take your hand off the throttle for a bit, but they are not a cruise control. Since they only hold the throttle in one position you need to be on a dead flat piece of road for that to hold your speed correctly for any length of time.
I spent something like $12.00 on a throttle rocker. Ues the heel of your palm to control the throttle. Doesn't look as good as the Kury grips, but a bunch cheaper.
THE INVENTOR & OWNER LIVES DOWN THE ROAD IN BELLINGHAM MASS. HE PERSONALLY INSTALLED IT ON MY BIKE AND ALL I CAN SAY IS I LOVE IT. WORKS LIKE A CHARM AND VERY TASTEFUL.
I spent 10 bucks on a cramp buster at a local sport bike shop. Clips on the throttle in one second. Best money I have ever spent on comfort for my bike. Lets you rest your palm on the throttle on the highway and have not had my right hand fall asleep since. Worth every penny.
