Hey All,

Check out what I installed. Very simple, actually idiot proof. Cost $20 and free shipping and a 1 year warranty. I also have the Grip Puppies, so I needed to peel it back 1/2"

The SilverWing take the small 7/8"

Thanks!
Just the information I wanted - I saw these on another forum and was wondering about which size to get as I, too, have Grip Puppies.

Thanks for the photos. Looks interesting. My only question is how does this release if you have a fast or emergency stop? Their web site doesn't answer that either.

I think the grip of the device is sufficiently 'weak' to allow the rider to just close the throttle in an emergency or even in ordinary riding.

It would seem that the clamp lock lever can be positioned so that the closing of the brake lever opens the clamp.

I have a "Vista Cruse" control. I also have Grip Puppies. There is plenty of room for both items on the handlebar. The Vista Cruse has a "thumb" release/activate. I like it in that you can activate or release it without touching the brake lever. Once you start using such a device, it becomes "second nature" as to when and how to start/stop it....just like the feel of thr brake levers or throttle in slowing down, stopping or accelerating.

GWPSI,

The Go Cruise has just enough grip to hold the throttle in place. You can easily disengage it by rolling the throttle forward. I will hope to check it out tomorrow and report back after a test ride.

billc,

Howdy fellow Atlantan. Can you post some pics of the Vista Cruise. I am curious on how to install it and what it looks like.

Thanks

Erick, good to hear from you. Vista-Cruise picture was posted today on this site by BuickGuy. Mine looks similar to that.
Its a very easy (10 min.) install and adjustment and works great for me.
I am in Chamblee so if you want to see my bike, PM me and we could meet somewhere nearby. billc.

Hi All,

Wanted to give you an update on the throttle lock.

I used it a few times, works great, no issue so far.

Thanks, Erick. Mine's on order.

I can see that being a member of this site it going to cost me some $$$. Just bought a couple and will anxiously await the arrival.

It arrived this morning!

I had to roll back the Grip Puppy and will trim it after I've tried the device on the road.

Hey Mike,

You are correct. I rolled back my grip puppy, slipped the silcone type ring, then installed the throttle control.

I did not cut mine, just in case I wanted to remove my throttle control.

Thanks, Eric - circumcision's not my thing!

Got mine last week. A very simple item that works very well. The clamp put enough pressure to hold the throttle in place. You can make minor adjustment with your index finger or roll back on the throttle to achieve the speed you need.

Bumping this because there seems to be discussion about throttle locks. I got one of these and it works fine for what it is and for my limited needs.
