Quote: Also, I had a throttle LOCK on my bike for awhile. It didn't work too well in my opinion
What was wrong with it? I've been thinking about getting one to relieve the carpal tunnel effect.
Like I said...a cruise control would be good b/c you keep a consistent speed. With the throttle-lock, it just locks the throttle at whatever position you locked it in. I found that it took a while to set a position that didn't have a slight gain in throttle or the opposite. In addition, slight hills would force you to adjust the throttle and throw everything off again. It was just too much work trying to find a somewhat consistent speed to hold at for a while.
