Cam-lock

Do any of you know if this will work on the rocket? I had on on my VTX and it really worked well. I looks like it would work on any duel cable system with a 1" dia. Throttle tube. What do you think?

Ok 64 people have looked at this with no comments. Maybe this will help.

Does the Rocket have a throttle tube? How does the stock grips come off? Can you reuse them after you take them off? Has anyone put after market grips on their's? Any info would help.

Thanks,

Bull

Doesn't Flip have a $0.50 solution?

Throttle locks can be had from several makers. The real question is what are you willing to pay? (I have Throttlemeister, no need to slip the grip off, it goes on the bar end, for $100+)

As to the grip, it's a slip-on over the throttle tube. To get it off you work it off by pulling on the end next to the starter button housing. By pulling toward you the grip expands (compresses shorter) and will slide glacially slow off the tube. To install you slip it over the tube end and push toward the starter house (again compressing the grip so it will slide). The process sounds easy until you actually do it, patience (or get a knife and new grips).

I have Kuryakin grips and used throttlemeister with them. It worked very well when I used it, but since I don't, strictly speaking, cruise at all it was largely unused until I sold it to RudeDog and he promptly ran it into a car. It was a very easy install.
