The cramp buster is pretty straight forward. My bike came with it and I've left it on. I'm not nuts about it - I would like to turn it "upwards" a bit, so that at 60MPH my wrist is more straight, but every time I advance it, then it sticks up too far at idle, and I'm laying on the throttle when I don't want to. SO I leave it where it's at - not perfect but not bad.
My throttle lock is much like the one pictured here - I'm not sure what brand it was - it was the $35-40 one they had in stock at Iron Pony, our (somewhat) local shop. I tend to use the TL a lot - my hand will start tingling so I'll lock it in and take a rest.

GreenBarn tell me more about your throttle lock, visual person I am pictures would be nice, your cramp buster is what I think I did not like it.

- September 01, 2013, 18:08:23 PMI've thought about this issue for a while, now. I even went so far as to adapt an automotive cruise to my FLT....it didn't work very well. The one thing that strikes me about any kind of cruise control on a double cable throttle system is that the throttle grip will have to be free to turn, or you will have to come up with something that will actuate the throttle without moving the cables. The ride by wire systems don't have any cables, so the stepper motor that controls the throttle is what they use for the cruise...That being said, I have a cramp buster and a vista cruise installed on my Drifter....
