Default Cruise Control

came across this little cruise control gadget on jpcycles and was wondering if anyone has one or used one and how it performs.

Mine came with a little screw thing under the throttle that does exactly what these items do. I assumed they all did. You just turn it with your thumb until it's tight enough to hold your throttle, and you can still roll it closed when necessary or just loosen the screw.

Of the 3 types posted, I believe I'll try the Throttlemate. The Go Cruise is also interesting tho....

i have a throttlemate and it just wont work right with the switchback, its either not enough or too much so they recommend changing the shoe inside the housing.

instead of doing that i bought one of the go cruise throttle assists listed above, haven't had a chance to use it yet but i like that fact that it is easy on/easy off and can be carried in a fork bag or windshield pouch.
