Atlas Throttle Lock

Post by KungFooBob »

Now I've seen all kinds of throttle locks for touring and as a kind of pseudo cruise control, but they all looked a bit rubbish.

Just seen an advert in a mag for this one...

https://www.atlasthrottlelock.com/

Looks quite good, bit safer than the other types I've seen. I like the thumb release buttons.

It's very very spendy tho'... £100!!!

You'd need some size of a coke sniffer hole to get a gloved finger up there anyway. :lol:

Something that sticks the throttle is far removed from cruise control.
