WTB Throttlemeister for ZX14
08/15/12 3:21 PM

Like the title says... WTB Throttlemeister for ZX14... Please let me know what you have, funny thing is I called the MFG and they seem pretty pompous... Like they were doing me a favor selling me their product... Would rather buy that from one of you guys.

I've got a set of the matt black with a red pin stripe for sale, $80 inc shipping. They are in great shape, worked perfectly until I got the LSL handlebar conversion kit, and the new bar doesn't have a threaded insert for the bar end weights and I'm too lazy to rig something up for it :)

They look like the top left weight in this picture

I Bought a set directly from Throttlemeister, Fred may come off like that a little bit on the phone but he's a nice guy if you meet him in person. They install for free at their shop in Milwaukee. I have the solid black-milled version with a silver pin stripe. They look and work great. $80 is a good deal, I paid $150.

Lowes has a rubber o ring #15, fits between the weight & grip... About $2, locks the throttle in place. A bargain, no longer need the throttlemeister... Disregard the PM for PayPal info. Thank you anyway!

I tried the o-ring idea with several sizes and couldn't get it to work very well. Good luck.

That o-ring idea is a really clever life hack, but I don't think I would do it. One great thing about the Throttlemeister is that you can easily turn it off and on. Sometimes I'll forget to completely disengage the Throttlemeister and it seriously jacks me up by keeping the throttle from closing itself. Sure, you can just always remember to forcefully turn the throttle, but I've gotten really used to the throttle returning itself, and I'm not sure I want to learn the new thing. And having your throttle stuck partly open is especially bad news when you need to grab some brakes fast.

I suppose you could take the o-ring out to 'turn it off'. But that Throttlemeister is just: get to speed, small twist engages, small twist disengages. Super simple and with practice you can do it without even coming off throttle at all. I'm imagining comparing that to trying to roll the o-ring into place, and somehow back out of place while I'm getting off the highway... either that or leave it in place and have the throttle somewhat stuck... Man no way! That's more than worth the $80 imo.

Sorry to sound like some sales rep (I'm not), but when it comes to traveling, that thing just really is the best thing ever.

I played around with the o ring a bit... It definitely works, but could be better. Nightmare PM me your Paypal address and I'll send you $$.... I want something that I don't have to mess around with.

LOL, way too funny, sorry was away for work, PM sent back. Yeah i'm not sure I would want something that would lock the throttle without being able to dis-engage the lock on the fly.
