    Not sure if it's possible for this one to stick, but if it did I'm sure it would be a 'change trouser' time. On a Rocket 3 it would take you into orbit

    They do not stick the throttle on that is almost impossible,you would do that by yourself, what happens is if you set them to high when you roll the throttle off it only goes as far as your wrist lets it now that can lead to a problem, as you would still have a lot of rev's working..

    I have to laugh there's even chrome ones for hogsters, I'm surprised they don't sell them with tassles.

    so how do these work exactly? do you rest the palm of your hand on the end and weight the throttle that way?

    Yeup, allows you to grip the throttle less tightly. You can flex your clutch hand most of the time, but if you try on the throttle, it backs off.

    I have one, don't use it all the time, usually for the boring stretches.

    are you able to have one but for the thumb?

    Which would be the best for everday general use?
    The only stupid question is a question not asked!

    You can put it wherever you like on the throttle. If you want to use your thumb on it, put it on the inside end of the throttle...

    I have it on the outside end and just use the heel of my hand for control...
