CRUISE CONTROL
ROTTENRICK:
ANYONE USED THE THROTTLEMEISTER ON THE INTERSTATE??
Earl in Pensacola:
Not on the IS, but yes on my Tourer and I'm taking them OFF! They too inconvenient and all that weight at the very end of the handle bars ADDS very noticeable road vibration. I'll be taking mine off and putting the OEM chrome caps back on. By-the-way. I installed the small throttle-lock and it's twice as effective and very convenient AND only costs $25.00!!

Personal opinion here. What you are referring to is nothing but a throttle lock. Hard to set, and a pain to get off.
I took mine off and the last time I saw it is was going under in the Des Moines River headed for the bottom.
I put on a McCruise system from Australia about 3 weeks later and have never looked back. Yes, it was expensive, but it has paid for it's self several times over on long days of riding.......
After over 230,000 miles, it still holds + or - 1 to 2 mph when turned on....... You can't have my electronic Cruise Control without a fight.

Ive been using the Brake Away control for two years. Its great with the two different ways to disengage. It looks oem and is well designed.

I installed a Brake Away throttle lock and it is still on the bike, however all I use it for now is to warm up the bike in the morning. Any throttle lock will give you vast speed swings when going up or down any incline which may be OK if you are riding by yourself and not in any traffic. As for me, I wish that I had put that first $200 for the Brake Away in on the McCruise which I eventually installed...JTL :cooldude:
