[Ducati] 916 throttle lock?

[Rich Roberts]

I think all of the various throttle locks could be made to work with Duc throttle since nothing esp unique about Duc throttle, I would also inlude the one that acts like a rest for your palm, they simply slip over throttle grip and allow you to use palm to add to the force and take it off fingers. I have never found many of the usual 10-20 dollar offereings to be very good. And a throttle lock needs to be good. I suggest you look at Throttlemeister which is very good quality. Rich.

I have a 916 and start to get some numbness in my throttle hand after about 45min of riding. My left hand is no problem since I can move it about, shake it, etc. while riding. Without some sort of throttle lock, though, I can't do the same with my right hand. I used to have a cheap plastic "lever lock" on my old Suzuki which was simple but effective...I really liked it. Has anybody seen or tried one that would fit a 916? I've tried using the built-in "fast idle" button, but it never seems to hold the bike at the proper speed. I'm not really looking for something fancy or expensive, just a simple device that will lock the throttle so I can get the feeling back in my hand!

Thanks...
