nobody is gonna have it in stock,
you're gonna have to order it



I got my roommate one for christmas,
he seems to like it.

I've ridden with it a little,
I prefer the Vista-Cruise throttle lock
(It dosn't look nearly as good, but I think it works better)

I've had "The Cheap Kind" on several bikes,
it's always worked very well.
only had to modify the one for the VFR (with a pocket knife, cause I installed it on the road)
it still took less time than playing with all the shims with the TM



but once you get the TM shimmed up and adjusted
it's definately the nicest looking setup out there.

I'm still kicking around an electric cruis control,
just don't wanna spend the cash

I have the TM on my GSXR750. I love it! It works great and takes out a lot of the vibration on the bars.

I was going to buy it brand new but just happened to check Ebay that day and found a set with one little scratch, got the set for $45 +shipping!!!
