Hello fellow riders, I went on an 800 mile trip this past week and felt my finger tips going numb after awhile. I thought that it was because I was ridding with a tight grip but I really wasn't.
Now I am looking at different throttle locks so i can give my hand a break on the good old slab.

The question is what works for everyone on their sprint 05-07 model or anything else.
Thanks in advance for any input.
Greg

I have a camp buster on my SV650S that I plan on using when I pick up and drive my Sprint 700+ miles this weekend back from Fort Worth, TX. It's worked great on my SV, can't see why it won't work great on my Sprint. Cheap to boot.

googus,

I use the Throttlemeister. It takes a little getting used to the way it works. Took me about 10 -20 min of locking / unlocking to get used to it. Now I am very happy with it and would highly recommend.

Throttlemeister-very high quality, looks like stock bar ends, works very well once you get used to the operation of it.

I did what Fleg is talking about - took my cramp buster from my sv650s ($8 from aerostitch.com) works like a charm although doesn't do the 'hands off' but it's cheap!
