He's looking for a throttle lock. That's more of a throttle assist. ....wait...cheerful?

I ordered a Vista Cruise throttle lock after seeing this thread. It just arrived and I installed today. It looks like part of the bike, like i belongs there. Not out of place and goofy looking. I really like the simplicity. Works very well and uses friction to lock the throttle, which can be overcome easily in case of emergency.

My only gripe, is that there is a little foot that comes off the bottom of the throttle lock, and this foot fits between the two throttle cables. This is what keeps the throttle lock from rotating when you twist the throttle. However, I removed my push cable, so I found my old push cable, cut the little nut off and installed it. No more issues.

Guess I should have mentioned that, knowing some of you danger seekers have removed your push cables. No push cable and a throttle lock. Might as well just drink some hemlock.

Say, that reminds me of one of my favorite jokes. What were Socrates's last words?

Somthing about giving **** to a guy named Dr. Milk Weed.

Man your right of course.. what were we thinking... There was that bike,, 1973 I think it was that had a stuck throttle, and the rider had no right thumb (lost it in a Polo accident I heard) so could not shut down the engine and he crashed into a unicorn ..

Ok, that was a lie.... I've actually NEVER seen or known a rider in 38 years that has had a stuck throttle.. Could be I don't own or ride with people that own clapped out crap bikes.. nor any of my customers or the people they know.... Ya that could exsplane my lack of ***** given about a throttle return cable vs somes exuberance in claiming "Ya'll gon die"

Ahh so you are just being a troll. My apologies, I thought you were actually being that delusional and misguided.

Gee, just being a troll, yes thats better....oh wait

Just making a joke. After all, I was the one who gave the Vista Cruise part number above. It was a calculated risk - exposing myself to a lawsuit when one of you suicidal types ***** it up with a "stuck throttle" using one of these things - but, a risk I'm willing to take to help some random guy on the interweb. Help him kill himself.
