I have the similar Kaoko device sold by Twisted Throttle. I use it very little, you need a long stretch of flat road for it to be effective. The Cramp Buster is much more useful.
Kaoko Throttle Lock Cruise Control (Yamaha FZ1, FZ6, TDM850, TDM900, XJR1200, XJR1300, & MT01, black or silver) -...
I agree. The original post I responded to stated that cruisers as a whole had horrible brakes. I saw where a Harley CVO model had one of the shortest stopping distances that MCN had ever recorded. Some sportbikes have poor brakes too. I love all bikes and didn't agree with the notion that...
Common knowlege? Look at the stopping data in any cycle mag. The old-teck cruisers have some of the shortest stopping distances. The weight of the cruiser can be an asset in a panic stop, the back brakes can be used to more effect on the big bikes. My Honda VTX1800 will beat my FZ6 in a panic stop.
I plan on giving the Fizzer to my son in a couple of years. My son in-law has a 500 ninja but jumps at any chance he gets to ride the FZ. I look foreword to years of riding with both of them!!!! They both feel real bad about the accident - I see a few bike washes and some lawn care in their future!
My son and I are attending a MSF class at the end of July. Really looking foreword to it - I took the class when I was 17 - A long long time ago. :thumbup:
My son hit my Fizzer with my car last night. My son in-law had the bike out getting ready to ride it, son was leaving at the same time and they managed to tangle. :spank: Bike didn't go down and damage was limited to a broken passenger foot peg bracket and scuff on the car bumper. I watched it...
I found out about Frank's work on this forum 2 years ago. His work is top notch, my reworked seat is the best mod money I have ever spent. I have talked several friends into sending seats to Frank and no one had been disapointed.:thumbup:
Yes - you can talk on your phone. The sound in the helmet is awesome. My wife said you can't even tell the person is on a motorcycle on the other end. The hook up to my ipod also works well.
Frank (Spencer) did my seat. Night / Day difference. I went with the supracore (sp?) material on the rider area and pillion. It is the best mod I have done thus far. You will send him a picture of you on the bike and he will recommend the mods that will fit you. Do it, you won't regret it!
