Left work early today to try and beat the rain that I thought was coming. Luckily it didn't pour down on me. Since I was home early I went to the garage to play bikes. I installed my cheap
throttle lock. I was looking for a throttlemeister but nobody can tell me which model would work with my brand clipons. Tried calling throttlemeister direct but they couldn't tell me either so fuck'em. This Vista Cruise is a bit ghetto looking but let me tell you, it's the SHIT!! With a quick flick of my thumb my throttle can be locked or unlocked, I can ride to work with no hands now if I want! D2, I know you said you might want a throttle lock so I think you should get this one, it was only $32!
Also installed my BMW-like radar mount, it threads into my mirror holes that I don't use. Tested out the radar detector too. Rode by the po po's house over on 4th ave and sure enough it told me there's bacon around. Hopefully this will be a big help to me/us in the quest for not getting pulled over.
Finally, I put on my new grips cause I decided to keep the current clip ons. I safety wired them on too, no more loose grips in the rain! I gots plenty of wire left over so if y'all want your wired up too just lemme know.

riding is so much better than not riding

glad to see i'm not the only one doing a little wrenching today. i finally swapped out my clipons since i got my 32mm socket, new grips (yes, another new pair), & the r6 throttle tube (1/5 turn to WOT opposed to 1/4 turn). didn't ride it afterward b/c the wifey got home & wanted to eat. it doesn't feel a whole lot different, but i think it's better, mainly b/c i have more room to work with the adjustment of the brake/clutch levers on the bars. that throttle lock sounds sweet though, e.
The throttle lock seems hot... it is kinda like another ring I have heard about...
