my only isssue with long rides is my right hand cramping up or going numb. i cant seem to finde any kind of cruise control devices for sportbikes. my dad has one on his vstar that just clams to the throtle tube, but it doesnt look like it would work on a sportbike. anyone have one or know where i could find them?

I know theres a thing on Ebay that goes over your grip and points toward you so all you have to do is rest your arm on it.

dont grip the throttle tube so hard I used to have that prob and I just loosend up my grip and it all went away

wojin

past that point, after about 30 miles i get to the point where i need to stop and get my hand away from the grip. i tried looser grip and even resting my hand on top of it(thumb on top and fingers on brake lever)

I have one on my R1. It is a little pricey, but works pretty good. It looks like a bar end.

You can make your throttle stick using a rubber band

or tighten the bar end bolt when you get to a certain speed

thanks skinny, 140 is a little much, but if thats what it takes to keep me on my bike longer it will be done.

anyone else got anything?

take your throttle cables off and let em get a little rusty

In theory, all you have to do is the idle cable mod that everyone does on their stunt bikes. I have it on my f4i and did it to my old 954.

All the idle cable is for us is essentially a throttle lock. I use it for idle tricks and what not, but for you, it could be your highway throttle lock.

If i click my f4i into 6th and crank on the idle cable up, it is essentially a throttle lock, and I can cruise at any given RPM. And it is only $10.

Cant you just turn up the idle??? what mod do you mean?

wojin

i want something a little easier and quicker to dissengage. the cable could work but at 70 or 80 mph stuff happens to fast to be twisting a cable around and around

Open the thread on the bottom of my last post.

Here are some others that I had looked at before I bought the throttlemeister. They are cheaper, and I don't know how reliable. NEP and Vista Cruise.

thats like what my dad has on his bike, but i dont think there is enough room on the clip-on

I recently went to alaska from texas and I didnt have any lock at all but my dad used an o-ring inbetween the bar end and the grip. It wedges in there and you can still close the throttle without having to disengage a lock. We were averaging 700 a day and it didnt wear out or move any so it works real well.

2nd idle cable....

it's called a clutch

i've got a 03 R6 and with a bit of grinding to it i fit a Vista Cruise onto my clipon, but i did have to put a shitload of lock tite on my bar end and only tighten it about 1/2 way to extend my clipon another 3/4 inch, but its a little sketchy cuz it can vibreate loose at hight revs and it does make the throttle stick a little......but in the end i would not recomend it to ne1 its really justa wast of $50 ....go get a rist assist...like a throttle rocker
