Kaoko Throttle Stabilizer

After years of abuse my right hand regularly cramps up with pins and needles when on a decent run on my T120. I’ve come across the Kaoko Throttle Stabilizer on the R&G Racing website that appears to offer a solution. Seems cheaper than Triumph cruise control. Anyone had experience of this product?

 

Just before this thread prematurely shoots off in another direction I found this description of the product.

‘Kaoko Throttle Stabilizer kits are an essential product for every rider. The kit consists of a simple, ingenious and robustly designed friction nut that is integral with a special Kaoko handle bar end weight. The Kaoko bar end weight is closely matched in appearance and weight to the Original Equipment Manufacturer’s (OEM) end weight.

It is operated by gripping the throttle stabilizer between your small finger and the palm of your hand and rotating as you normally would. To disengage the throttle stabilizer, whilst rolling off the throttle, grip the throttle stabilizer between your small finger and palm of your hand.

The main features of the Kaoko Throttle Stabilizers are ;-

• Greatly reduces rider fatigue and strain on hand and wrist.

• Whilst cruising, rider is able to remove hand from throttle grip, throttle opening will remain as set.

• Very simple to operate, even with heavy winter gloves. High quality, compact and durable design, super smooth action.

• Less wear and tear on throttle cables and linkages. Can result in reduced fuel consumption.

• Very little maintenance is required.

• Takes less than 5 minutes to fit.’
