Where To Buy Throttlemeister

[Rogue]

Where is the best place to buy a Throttlemeister throttle lock online?

Thanks.

Not to throw you off, but have you checked out the Kaoko throttle lock?

The only reason I'm mentioning it is because you can adjust the friction while riding. Going up a hill, you just have to twist the throttle a bit and it will stay in place. With the throttlemeister, don't you have to turn it off, then accelerate up the hill, and then turn it on again?

Bought several sets now and always bought mine from  http://Throttlemeister.com

I recently picked up the Go Cruise throttle control fro  Aerostich. http://www.aerostich.com/a-to-b-utilities/rider-comfort/cruise-controls. It is a cool little device. Shaped like an open end wrench, you place it on the throttle. WHen you reach your desired speed, you push the handle down to meet your brake lever. The friction keeps your throttle in place, and allows you to continue to input throttle controls by rolling on or off.

And its only 20 bucks.

I have the vista cruise on my 83 maxim...it's pretty awesome.  started losing the grabbing capabilities after I laid her down though

Have you tried this?  The device doesn't slip so you have to keep re-adjusting?  I'm curious as it looks like it may work for an inexpensive throttle lock.  Thanks.

The TM can be adjusted on the fly when it's engaged.  No need to disengage to adjust speed.

As a Throttlemeister owner, I kinda hate the thing. When it works, it works great. Readjusting it once removed for maintenance or anything sucks however. I cant seem to get the shims JUST RIGHT to keep from dragging against the throttle (when unneeded), but still hold appropriately when it's applied.

That Go-Cruise looks slick though...

I'm a big fan of the simplicity of the Vista Cruise.  Never liked the ThrottleMeister. But to answers the OP's question, go direct to the source as mentioned above

This would be a two handed application, yes?

I just installed the Kaoko and I think I will be very happy with it.

Had the Vista Cruise....never got it to work.  These things should work without having to hassle with them.

Tried the Throttlemeister.  Never got it to work reliably.  Maybe newer ones are better, but the key issue is that they only apply X tension.  If it's not enough, you keep fiddling until you find that "sweet spot."

The Kaoko is pricey, but it's an unlimited torque lock.  You set it so you can easily roll it to no pressure or as much as you want.  No fussing to find that sweet spot once it's installed.  Just keep tightening until it holds your speed.  If it starts to slip, tighten a tad more.

Yep, I have used it. It works very well. Simple, cheap and effective. Everything you could want in a gadget. I used it extensively last weekend while cursing from Vancouver, BC to Olympia, WA and back.
