Kaoka Throttle Lock

Hi all,

Has anyone tried this yet? Does anyone have one AND heated grips. I have the new style Oxford Heaterz Grips and need a throttle lock. Throttlemeister doesn't recommend theirs with heated grips. I've tried the vista cruise and the other one, can't remember the name, but didn't really like them.

Chime in with your experiences/comments.

Thanks,

Is that $110 for 1 grip end or is it a matched set? :unsure:

Several of my Bimmer buddies use that lock. That locking knob sticks out pretty far but I can't see why it wouldn't work with the stick-on heated grips like Symtec. I have TM's with Symtec grip heaters. I can't say anything for the Oxford grips though.

To anyone reading this thread. The Kaoka will only fit with stock handlebars...will not fit with Heli-Bars. I found out the hard way. http://www.vfrdiscussion.com/forum/public/style_emoticons/default/pissed.gif Looks like Throttlemeister next.

I had Symtec heated grips and a Throttlemeister on my ST1100. Didn't seem to be a problem. I found the Throttle meister too be hard to use. On the VFR, I have a Vista Cruise throttle lock. Love it! It is so much easier to use.

I've always been curious of how easy it was to use these style of "twist to lock" devices since they are on the right side of your hand. With the NEP lock style you can use that thumb that is so conveniently placed. Looks like it's a good quality device non the less.
