I did not like the electronic variety because of cost and plus there is so much electronics and wiri

After a few long runs, 700KM or so,  My wrist would cramp up and become very painful, tour edge exotic 5 wood some kind of motorcycle cruise control was needed, just so I could rest my wrist from the dreaded throttle cramps without having to keep stopping. I researched various cruise controls from the very expensive electronic ones, 500 Dollars plus, to the cheaper cam lock mechanical cruise controls.
I did not like the electronic variety because of cost and plus there is so much electronics and wiring to go wrong, the mechanical variety, whilst only being around 50 Dollars were not made specifically for my bike, mostly Harley s, so experimented tour edge exotic 5 wood with various rubber bands and came up with this.
It takes two rubber bands twisted around and placed between the throttle grip and throttle mounting, it works great, I have had no more of the dreaded throttle cramps since using this on long runs. One US Dollar is the cost for a life times supply, and when no longer required simply use a screwdriver tip to hook them out.
Thanks for an awsome blog! I ve been looking for some time now, to what type/brand of bike to get and I found your site, and you have now almost convinced me to get the Transalp (still thinking of Kawasaki s counterpart) ..my question is, won t the rubber band risk the throtle stick at a bad time and cause accident?? Sorry for the rookie question!
Thanks for the kind comments, the rubber band cruise control has performed flawlessly for 5500KM (4000 Miles) the rubber band is strong enough to hold the throttle open but not strong enough to resist the strength in your hand, it makes the long motorway journeys less of a strain on your wrist and fore arm.
