What brand of "Throttle Rocker" best mates up with the RT-Limited heated grips, or should I even bother? Mr. Arthur Itis is my constant riding companion who always shows up after about 2 hours. I do not find Cruise Control appropriate for riding back roads. Yes, I am "long in the tooth".
I have the "original" branded Throttle Rocker on mine, and don't really care for it. The spring rate on the throttle is too light for me, and I find myself leaning on it a bit more than I should and speeding up. Also, sometimes when coming to a stop, I'll be on it a bit much and slightly revving the engine so I'm fighting the brakes. I push it out of the way for the most part thinking maybe I'll try it again sometime, but haven't done it yet. I don't use the CC much if at all.

I have an original Crampbuster, the wide Crampbuster and an original (no velcro) Throttle Rocker. Had the Throttle Rocker on the Harley, Gloria had the long and narrow vesrion of the Crpambuster on her VW trike, and I had the wide Crampbuster on the Triumph Bonneville. When we downsized to just the Spyder RTS and the Triumph Bnneville T100 I put the Throttle Rocker on the Trumpet, and I tried the Crampbusters on the RTS. Didn't like them much, remembered I was given a throttle spoon some time ago, so I dug it up and it works great for me. It is a metal band with a wooden spoon portion that hinges so it can swing right against the grip, completly away from the grip or anywhere in between. No idea who made it, can't find it on the web, and there are no markings on it. Would be nice to find another one.

The one in the pictures is the one my wife has on her bike and she really likes that it folds out of the way when not in use. She has arthritic hands. I don't remember where I got it.
