Cruise Control for ANY Motorcycle? | Throttle Lock Review

[@ACommenterOnYouTube]

Just got mine today, it WORKS ...!!! It works if you get the throttle to hold speed AND you get this positioned right. It held for 7 miles before i had to step for a red light but i was amazed that it worked. It took a bit to get it down but it does work !!!

[@jay_fast]

Solid value for the money. Anyone that’s done any distance knows how good a little relief can boost morals and rider comfort

[@theunknown4570]

I'm a harsh skeptic. But got it and just tried it. it goes on and works like it says. Although it wont set you in easily at a fine pin point speed every time and you do have to fiddle with it. Overall. I can see this working just fine on a straight long road where i just need to get relief off the throttle hand for a few miles. For the price. Seems like a very good deal.

[@nickchapman8474]

I really only use mine for about 2 minutes at a time if my right hand gets tingly, for 25 bucks it's a steal

[@GooseDave]

Nice review mate - thanks for sharing. Mine arrived a while back, but I didn't get round to fitting it. Basically the same as yours, so your practical insights are useful - got a long trip tomorrow so needed a quick heads up to whether worth fitting before I set off. Looks like it is. Cheers.

[@ronhorton21]

I just picked up an '86 Suzuki Calvacade with 14000 miles on it. I had one similar back in 1990, but it was the deluxe version, with cruise and a great sound system. This one has a radio and 8 track, and not cruise. So I'm looking into what to use. I have a Breakaway on my 2001 Intruder, but that's expensive and comes with it's own problems. This might be something I try out. Thanks.

[@nigelmtb]

Nice video - my first time visiting your channel. Your voice is very relaxing to listen to. And you sold me on getting a throttle lock.

[@BrandonBicasso]

Preciate that, Nigel!

[@MrRunner]

I fitted one of these to my FZ07. It was cheap and I have arthritis in my R hand, so...... After a couple of long rides, I'm not sure these things are safe. I have heated grips and this lock struggles to maintain a set speed, as it slips and I'm reluctant to reef it down as I could break the thin mylar heater. I was riding in torrential ran alone, turned on a bend, Stop light !. I got it unlocked in time, but it was quite frightening. Think I'll look for something else

[@Elbreth79]

Good info and as always, music on point. I was looking for something like this for a long trip I was planning.

[@BrandonBicasso]

You know the music ALWAYS has to be on point 😎

[@andysshop]

Thanks! It’s as easy as I thought, but you helped me see exactly how to use it.

[@BrandonBicasso]

Ayeee, glad it helped!

[@dmedina6835]

Love my roadking with cruise control and i found the ebay knock off throttle lock for 8$ for my other bikes welllllll worth the money- great vid

[@BrandonBicasso]

Yep! So many options out there for it. Was lucky to be gifted the one I have. Has helped SO MUCH. Something so simple brings that much relief.

[@MakoVette]

My Mrs. has a "Cramp Buster" on her Street Bob. It's not a CC device, but it does solve the problem pretty darn well and in a safer manner than the clamp on device IMHO. It's cheap too :) Cheers!

[@BrandonBicasso]

Cheap is good! Lol.

[@HeyMakedonsky]

Best review for that kind of product on youtube. Thanks!

[@41BeachComber]

I bought one too, just not put on yet. Hope to try it out on Monday when home on my M109r too.

[@BrandonBicasso]

How'd it go

[@41BeachComber]

@@BrandonBicasso I not put on yet, but I will post video when I do. I just posted two rides on my channel using the phone since im still having issues with GoPro 7. Its a work in progress. Id like to get as good as you are. I really enjoy your videos.

[@quochuync]

Does it affect ability to do emergency breaking?

[@BrandonBicasso]

It can if you don't roll the throttle forward first. I do this anyway before using my front brakes as should anyone riding.

[@chrishunter5041]

I have two bikes with cruise control and two that don't, on the two without I use a palm rest it take the pressure off having to grip the throttle.

[@PennsylvaniaDualSport]

This was done well thank you. Was given one of these. Will try it out on my Africa Twin

[@billcarson1966]

There are tons of variations on Amazon. I paid $15 for a really great one.

[@maxvaquilar5305]

great in-depth video!

[@jincardona]

The link below is to a product I purchased on Amazon for the same reasons. It is significantly more expensive, but it appears to be a better design. It works well on my 2011Triumph Speed Triple 1050.

[@molonlabe9602]

Also try a throttle assist...it allows you to operate the throttle or maintain throttle position without gripping the throttle.

[@PrecisePBJ]

Amen on the cruise control for sure! I have had many bikes and this current bike is the first with cruise. I love it and use it all the time. Had this invention existed when I had my last bikes I would have grabbed it up right away! Going to share this with some friends who would benefit greatly👍🏼

[@TheGorillaBiker]

I think I'll get one of these to try on the Magna, as you said even just to stretch it'd be a life saver without stopping :)

[@BrandonBicasso]

Fo sho ❤️

[@stevefrost4979]

Have a 2012 honda shadow aero but can not find any cruise control that fits it. Have got 3 different ones and they did not work?

[@BrandonBicasso]

Which throttle locks have you tried?

[@TeamTaur]

Dagonne 2020 vmax does not have CC. Guess I don't wanna be on CC doing 120... but I want that option...lol. Octane doesnt have it either. Would be nice tho. I need to buy one... just to try it.

[@BrandonBicasso]

It'd be great on either of those or any equivalent. It's nice to take some pressure off your wrist and stressed body parts even if for a few seconds.

[@TeamTaur]

@@BrandonBicasso I hate adjusting 3 of 14 helmet vents or adjust my neck cover at the cost of 10mph.... got keep on hitting the daggone throttle.

[@BrandonBicasso]

😂😂😂

[@RyouConcord]

New rider, found this video looking for throttle locks. Nice video man, thanks for the upload!

[@BrandonBicasso]

Thanks for watching, Gaius 👌🏾❤️

[@bluesandbikes9434]

I have the Go Cruise, and it is definitely a hand saver that I do not regret buying.

[@BrandonBicasso]

Yep! A great cheap mod that goes a long way.

[@bikerbobcat]

I've used a cramp buster with no success because it just kept slipping. A little nervous about a mechanical throttle lock but if it's only like $30 that's not a lot of money lost on an experiment.

[@BrandonBicasso]

So far so good for me. I agree, though. I've looked at electronic options. Tad expensive but this is a good alternative for the masses.

[@roninsoul88]

I've thought of checking these out for a while for my Harley but, I've been torn on this vs the Cruise-mate as the Cruise mate is permanently installed and doesn't stick out. It costs a little bit more but I think it would be worth it. I just cant get myself to buy either one yet LOL

[@BrandonBicasso]

Lol, definitely go with the more seamless and integrate solution that's available. $$$ and installation ease are always big factors.

[@OKNGN]

Thanks bud, great vid!...great balance of info and some laughs Love the Boulevard too ... just what I was looking for

[@Fattyjevans]

Great video. The voice over work was on point. You've earned a new subscriber. Keep up the good work!

[@BrandonBicasso]

I appreciate someone looking at the little details. 👌🏾

[@LargeFather39]

Just got one for my Yamaha Raider. Those hand cramps are a pain when getting yonder.

[@BrandonBicasso]

Good idea. They're all so compact that you forget it's there.

[@conawayjb]

nice! been looking for one so I ordered from your link

[@BrandonBicasso]

Ah snap. That's dope! I hope it works well for you. Keep me posted.

[@gregl5407]

Thanks for a very informational video. I've been thinking of getting a throttle lock for my technological dinosaur KLR 650. Along ride on my bike is a killer on my throttle hand.

[@BrandonBicasso]

Definitely might help!

[@Mike.L.]

I'm glad I happened across this video. I just bought a maxi scooter and there was one of these (a different brand) under the seat. I had no idea what it was for until now. LOL. It should come in even handier with a scooter (no clutch) which has excellent engine braking as mine does. You don't even have the option of taking your hand off the throttle for just a few seconds while clutching. Add to that I have carpal tunnel in my hands, so CC will help a lot. Ride safe!

[@BrandonBicasso]

😂😂😂 Now you know!

[@nealkeith299]

Nice looking cruiser.

[@JasonCollin-jd5on]

Thanks for the review

[@tonysantana6747]

I’ve used mine on my gsxr 100 and on my 109, it’s not perfect but it helps a lot.

[@IRLtrolls]

Great video! I love the voice over audio. Subbed to your channel.

[@mrpyatt100]

Brakeaway motorcycle cruise control throttle lock. It disengage when I pull the brake lever

[@BrandonBicasso]

I might buy one and revisit this. So many options out there.

[@itisaporsche]

Brandon, great thorough review. I purchased one because of your review and I like it for my Goldwing F6B which does not have cruise.

[@BrandonBicasso]

Awesome, Chas! Glad it’s working for you.

[@kenbred46]

The BrakeAway lock is still the better option IMO as it fully releases when the brake lever is pulled. But for $30 compared $190 this one is a good value

[@TD205]

I test rode the Kawasaki Vaquero 1700 a few weeks ago. It had cruise control, that feature is amazing. First time experiencing cruise control, it was awesome!! Great video!!👍🏿

[@BrandonBicasso]

It shocked me the first time I tried it on a 2016 XDiavel. I'll never forget it. Been hooked since.

[@nixie2462]

Interesting, but after completing my own throttle-hold (NOT lock) anything else, including the kaoko, is crap.

[@OutbackOutlaw]

I feel like that everyday I’m riding. I need an ice jacket. 👍🏾💯

[@BrandonBicasso]

I'll be riding in the Outback one day to experience that ❤️

[@ut1004bp]

Brandon, we need all hands of deck to change these companies from labeling and calling mechanical throttle locks Cruise Control.. Shame on all of them..

[@BrandonBicasso]

I agree!

[@xehP]

I just want this for my ebike so it can stay at a steady pace, saves me holding the throttle down for 60 minutes straight lmao

[@MrDave308]

Good Video , I ride a 2011 Raider with aftermarket bars , this may be the only "cruise control" that will work for me ! been looking for this.

[@BrandonBicasso]

Nice! Glad it helped!

[@Bigman6357]

got one just please be careful which way up you mount it, as i found the friction screw stops you pulling the brake lever in fully...oh how i laughed...

[@angelsarah442]

*Brandon Bicasso* Hey look ! I'm from year 2069 and I love this channel

[@UncleDon226]

Yo, I didnt even know these existed! I would do that sketchy thing where I reach across and hold the throttle with my left hand just to shake some feeling back into my right

[@BrandonBicasso]

Lol, you get used to it. I broke my right index finger in an accident and can still engage it. It's super sketch to use your left hand 😂😂😂

[@DrAlmurshidy]

Is it legal to ride on the shoulder?

[@BrandonBicasso]

In 120 degree road heat, I’ll take my chances.

[@DrAlmurshidy]

@@BrandonBicasso :)

[@DrAlmurshidy]

@@BrandonBicasso I understand. I live in Vegas. I avoid riding during the day altogether.

[@ericleeSupSayK]

So what happens if you engage the clutch why these cruise control device are on🤣

[@BrandonBicasso]

If you’re bold enough to do it you can find out 😂

[@zjwolf3877]

O good its out of stock during December

[@Broddi169]

I use the same one on my 109

[@holdencaulfied7492]

Dude, why don't you add some heated grips instead of putting your hands on the engine block?

[@BrandonBicasso]

I could. At the time I was being cheap.

[@TeamTaur]

Since your on the topic of creature comfort and peace of mind gadgets... have u ever used a tired plug kit with a nos charge?.... I've been meaning to practice/simulate fixing a road side flat , so if it happen, it won't be first day of differential equations. Have u done a video on that yet? I don't have a tire in bad enough shape laying around to put a hole in... u have a boss, so maybe u have a used 240 collection! Lol. and I don't wanna do it on a car tire as it may not be 1:1. I wanna ride to atl instead of driving there every weekend... but I keep thinking I'm not prepared if I don't have tire repair experience. I was gonna carry an air pump, but I was made aware of these air charges. Also do u have AAA or emergency support via your Insurance? I'm a have to do something so I feel better about going beyond 150 minutes from the house. OK enough questions..lol

[@BrandonBicasso]

I haven't plugged a tire in years, lol. I had one on my first bike but I wasn't out in the road. Had a rubber tire plug that you stab into the tire. After I plugged it, added air and was good to go. It lasted that way for several thousand miles until the tire got bald in that spot and the plug shot out while out riding. I rode home on a flat 😂.

[@TeamTaur]

@@BrandonBicasso hahaha.. man u kept on that tire that long! U a brave soul. I'm too paranoid(I remember doing that on my bmx tho...riding the rear tire till u see tan thread patches... then when u get a New tire, u telling ya friends not to skid on your bike... lol ). 2 fears I have: 1. A girl saying NO when asking for phone number... that's why i been giving my email Addy out since 1999 freshman year. Idont care if u dont email me, But i cant get ya number shorty ?.... DAGGER Lol 2. Being stranded in the south with no friends to call on. done watched too many eps of eyes on the prize and Mississippi burning. OK there's more fears but I'll save em for a top 10 fears video. Lol. Cheers

[@garyteague4480]

Love that bike and this is great information

[@BrandonBicasso]

😅, sure thing.

[@jhunt8502]

I guess I am different..I want the cramps and pain. I never want to get to comfortable riding because I will get in a accident.

[@BrandonBicasso]

Fair point. But, my counter to that is cramps/pain could lead to accidents if you can't operate the motorcycle efficiently. Plus, cramps/pain takes my focus away from everything else. Kind of like migraines, etc.

[@jhunt8502]

So very true Brandon..but we all know there are people out there, that feels pain is pleasure. I am all for the pleasure and pain, and is really focused. The longest I rode was 12 hrs and enjoyed every bit of it, sore parts, and thirsty. Lol

[@BrandonBicasso]

Oh naw. I can't, lol. I'd be a board for days. Orlando was okay but the cold added to the expense. 😂😂😂😂
