Throttle Rockers on a gz???

tommygun · 06-30-2009, 05:35 PM

Does anyone regularly use throttle rockers? I ride about 60mile as day at 55mph on country road and am looking into TR's. Please advise. :popcorn: :popcorn:

Use them all the time. Lynda had one on her GZ and now has both left and right side of her M-50. Same as my Vstrom. We have the design using the velcro straps for adjusting and are very reliable and stay where you put them. I also have Grip Puppies on the Vstrom and the rockers fit nicely. They do ease the wrist and hand fatigue on a longer ride and are easier on older bones than just hanging on and twisting.
Got them from casporttouring .com Cheap investment in comfort. Cost more to mail them here in the GWN than to purchase them.

I have used them for years and and when I got the GZ for my son the first thing I got him was a TR and when I got my VL800 I went stright to the bike shop and got one for it.
