throttle locks

Post by Tom Vervaeke » Wed Oct 11, 2000 11:23 am

From: TooTallracing@... Subject: [DSN_klr650] Throttle Lock I would like to buy a throttle lock for my klr 650. Does anyone in the group have any experience with throttle locks. Thanks ============ TooTall: I ended up going with the Universal Mount Vista Cruise. It costs about $35 but works perfectly. Fred Hink sells them. I mounted mine very quickly and like the way it works. No drilling or filing, etc.. I have a set of digital pictures I would be glad to send you if you like. It holds the throttle perfectly at all times. Very neat. I'd be glad to write a 1 page document with the pictures and send to anyone who wants it. Due to the mild "vibes" from my KLR, I think a throttle lock is a necessary item. IMHO the NEP unit is a piece of cheap s**t. The standard Vista Cruise is fine but requires drilling.

Geeze, I wouldn't be that tough on the lowly NEP. It's half the price of the Vista and works perfectly. Never failed me in 20+K miles. Gino

I purchased a "Wrist Rest" from www.ratracecycle.com for my Cagiva Gran Canyon and it works great. His service was excellent, I called on Tuesday and he made a custom one for my bike with a couple easy measurements I gave him, he shipped it on Wednesday and I had it Friday. I installed it and left on a trip for a week. I rode 2700 miles and it was easy to use and works excellent. It is CNC machined out stainless steel and aluminum and the cost was $62 plus shipping. He doesn't have a model specifically for the KLR but I am sure he could make one to fit. A lot of BMW riders use this same item. Ryan

Another nail in the coffin of general aviation (especially Cessna & Piper) was, for instance, the pilot of a 40 yr old plane has the seat adjuster fail on takeoff and he slides back into oblivion. The relatives manage to successfully sue the manufacturers into bankruptcy. Mark B2 A2 A3
