    I have a round but flat/paddle like thingy that I put on the trottle that I rest my palm on which acts as a cruise control. I love it.

        Not going to link a specific site, that way you can choose where to purchase from. But here is a search result for the product the above poster is referring to.

        Cramp Buster

        I don’t currently use one myself as my current bike has cruise control. I will say I have used these in the past on my previous 3 bikes that did not have cruise. Yes an absolute game changer for long rides.

        IF you have a decent amount of extra cash burning a hole in your pocket the Atlas Throttle Lock is on a whole other level of amazing.

        Upgraded my wife from the Cramp Buster to the Atlas. She will not be going back.

            Wholeheartedly agree. I believe 100% they are over priced. I knew it was over priced when I bought it for the wife’s bike. Then again, I tend to believe just about ever accessory that says “for motorcycle” is over priced. And yet we pay those prices to keep our knees in the breeze, and that shit eatin grin on our faces.
