GC-A1BK GO CRUISE 2 Universal Throttle Control System – Black

I have been riding motorcycles since I was 10 years old. Since about 30 years of age, I have been plagued with carpal tunnel in my throttle hand (only when riding, never other times). I've been forced to hole the throttle with my left hand at 70 mph so I could shake out my right, vary hand positions constantly, try palm rests to hold the throttle, and numerous wrist supports. Nothing every worked. I was always leary of losing throttle control with a locking devise, but finally decided I needed something.I can't express enough how pleased I was with this purchase. Cost is super reasonable and it works. Bottom line. I can remove my hand, rest it, shake it out, pet my dog (he rides beside me on a side car), and yet as soon as I grab the throttle and turn it down, I am back in control. It's supper easy to adjust and set. It does slip a bit if you don't set it tight enough, but easy enough to tighten up even at full highway speeds.

The media could not be loaded. I took this photo with my Kurakyn grips because so many other people (myself included) wanted to know if it would work with these grips. The grips are chrome and smooth, so I was afraid it either wouldn't stick, or would mark the surface up. Either way would have been bad.I'm happy to report it works pretty great. It ships with a silicon/rubber black band about 3/4 inch wide. You can see I also have the Kurakyn throttle boss attachment. The rubber was a little tight to squeeze around my throttle boss, but it went with no problem so if you don't have something like that in the way, you should have no problem installing the silicon/rubber ring.Installation really easy. (See attached video).VIBRATION:I'm writing this review after taking a 1,000 mile long 4-day journey with the Go Cruise attached. It worked out really well. One question often mentioned was whether it held up well to vibration. Keep in mind I have a Suzuki Boulevard C50T cruiser... it's a fuel-injected, shaft driven bike, so it doesn't have the constant vibrating rumble of a 1800cc Harley. Having said that, it worked fine for me. Does it slip a little here and there? Sure it might. I just tightened the thumb screw a little more until I found the sweet spot. I wanted it tight enough not to slip but not so tight that it would mar my grips. I think it works fine for me. If you tried to run it for 50 miles, you'd probably get some slippage, but you're never going to do that.This is a throttle lock, not a cruise control, so unless you happen to be on some super-flat stretch of Kansas, you're going to accelerate/decelerate too much going up and down hills to leave it unattended for more than a mile or three. I did try it out on a 100 mile trip to Raleigh, NC and at one point I rode for about 20 miles without ever touching the throttle except to bump it up on a slight hill now and then.I'd imagine if you had the harder rubber grips instead of my chrome grips, the Go Cruise would probably really be even MORE solid for you. What little slippage I did feel at first was because it was too loose, and again I have it on a smooth chrome grip, so I've got more polished surface to deal with than most people will.Overall I'm very pleased with the performance for what I paid for it. There are five of us that ride together. After having it for about 10 days, two others bought the same thing after they saw mine. I was going to save for the Kurakyn bar-end throttle lock, but that costs 3 times as much and would require me to remove my throttle boss and I've really become attached to that little device.Just get it. You won't be sorry.

This thing is beautiful in its simplicity. It's perfect for the price and ease of use. It functions exactly as expected. It's easy to install and easy to use. It feels sturdy. My only gripe is that if you have big hands and bar end mirrors, this may not be for you. I'm going to hold on to mine but it'll sit in my gear bag unless I'm on a longer trip. If you don't have bar enda or you don't have big, wide gorilla hands, this thing will be perfect.

Probably one of the best things I’ve ever bought for my Yamaha R6. It’s cheap, it works and is out of the way when you don’t need it.On my R6 the cruise control lock works better at highway speeds or in 6th gear since at lower gears the bike either wants to speed up or slow down with engine break. But it’s definitely worth it for those times I’m taking a long boring road going the same speed for miles. Highly recommend.

This seems like a well built and simple to use product. Installation could not be easier.I recently replace my stock Yamaha (FJ 09) throttle lever with a adjustable stubby AVS lever. The shorter lever does not provide enough space for both the Go Cruise arm and my two fingers so I had to remove the Go Cruise.This is not a criticism of the product but you should be aware that third-party short levers may be problematic.There are not a lot of long flat areas where I ride so I was not really sold the Go Cruise anyway. It holds your throttle in a fixed position. This is great if you are on flat roads - you will generally maintain a constant speed.. If you encounter hills your speed will decrease on uphill grades and then you will find your speed increasing when you go downhill.The effect is more pronounced if the grade is severe so I rarely used the product.

This one works good and won’t dig in and rip your grips like the other one I bought I thought the silicon band wouldn’t for my large grips because there thicker then normal but they did stretch enough for it to be put on there thankfully, and it makes it a little bit easier for slightly adjusting your speed 10/10 would recommend
