Throttle Rocker

Postby snavetrauts » Tue Jul 31, 2007 10:04 pm

Best 5 quid I have ever spent. Thought the throttle cruise control for 50 plus quid was a little pricey, so I thought I would try this bit of plastic.

Absolutely brilliant..... I covered hundreds of miles and no aching hands at all. I think just holding the throttle open for extended periods causes strain on the fingers.... this avoids all that.... just rest your palm on it and relax.

GREAT

I've been thinking about one of these. I think I'll get one.

Hi

I have been using one for a couple of years and as snavetrauts said, they are brilliant and also do not great in the way on the bendy bits.

I have both types. The shiny cruise control has looks that are better than its functionality.

But still prefer my cheapo plastic Throttle Rocker. Well worth a fiver, it rocks!

And here is the rocker:

NOTE: you can get both cheaper elsewhere! So shop around.

I got one. It's brilliant. Took it to wales, 100 miles down the motorway with just my palm resting on it. Fab.
