need a throttle lock/cruise control

#1 Unread post by redcoat »

I need a throttle lock/cruise control. I had one years ago, but that bike is long gone. Can't remember the maker. It's for a CB400T being forced into long distance highway use. Suggestions? Makers? Opinions?

Dean,

What's it like in use? Has it, can it ever be stuck in the "on" position? Are you using a double cable pull to open, pull to close throttle system? I ask as I always ditch the second cable, and just rely on the spring to shut off the throttel. How was it to mount? our bikes are of similar vintage and probably have similar control designs 78cb400
