I'm happy with the original $20 plastic GoCruise. If I were buying another throttle locker of that style, I'd spend the $50 and get the OmniCruise, which is aluminum, adjustable and made in the US. According to reviews, it is top drawer. |

I've got an Omni Cruise,I was just wondering if it would interfere with the heated grip. |

I use this with the 2008 and heated grips. As someone said "best $20 I ever spent on a $2 piece of plastic." http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0055QOKC8/ref=oh _aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1 |

Factory heated grips are externally identical to non-heated grips, there's just one wire that comes out. Correctly installed throttle grips, the wire comes out between dead-ahead, and straight down. Completely "out of the way". |

I have put the Kaoko throttle lock on all three of my Uly's...expensive...but best solution I've seen. |

I road to the mountains using my Omni Cruise yesterday and didn't like that it won't install all the way inboard on the grip,due to the radius on the control end of the heated grip.I'm looking at the Throttlemeister.The S3 vibrates more through the bars than my S2 and I like the fact that the Throttlemeister is also a bar end weight. |

What about the outboard end? Maybe a little tricker to use, but out of the way? |

Can you imagine having this on the outside edge of your grip?
"Out of the way?" Not so much. |

Universal Vista Cruise, and it works well. I also have a throttle rocker on the end to help when not using the cruise. |
