Look.\nIng to get the Atlas throttle lock for my s.T anybody have any experience with these do they work fairly decent
 
The Go Cruise is the most functional throttle lock available and it is a fraction of the price of others. Friction locks like the Atlas, Throttlemeister and others hold a single throttle position. The Go Cruise sets a throttle position but the rider is able to increase speed above the set position when helpful yet when released the throttle returns to the speed originally set. It eliminates half the adjustments necessary when encountering hills or passing situations. For example after the GC is set and a hill is encountered the rider increases the throttle to hold speed up grade then the throttle is allowed to return to set position after the crest. Same for passing a slower vehicle with the GC set. Roll on gas to pass, release throttle after overtake is completed and the bike will return to the previously set speed.

Oh ok thank you very much.Yeah, I'm gonna look up those so the Atlas throttle lock won't do that, will.If you give it gas to pass somebody or whatever it'll stay at that throttle , right
 
I have an Atlas, ( or copy thereof) and Dave, ( above) is correct...the GoCruise is a better and more reasonable choice. I have tried many, and the GoCruise is likely the best choice.
 
I use the Go Cruise and really really like it and second (or third) everything that's been said. I've used NEP and Vista Cruise throttle locks and the Go Cruise has so many things going for it. Simple efficient design. Very easy to install. Very easy to engage/disengage. The accelerate and return to set speed make the Go Cruise transparent in operation. Super big bang for the buck in form and function.

Thank you very much , that's what i'm going to get
 
It looks like the Go Cruise requires two hands to set. Does it, or can you set and release it with one?

It also seems like it could hold the throttle partially open unless you rotate it closed firmly.

I have been using NEPs for decades. Easy to override either direction, and a flip of the thumb to release.

Guess I'm not that familiar with that model.
Seems to me, it pretty much defeats the entire purpose of a throttle lock / cruise control kind of device.
OH. Looks like it does NOT take 2 hands, at least for this fella on YouTube:
