Default Throttle lock/cruise control

Anyone know of a throttle lock which would work with a 99 cbr900?

I've installed these on a bunch of BMWs - no issues, and the way they work favors safety (i.e. rolling off the throttle releases the friction hold).

YMMV...

I have tried several. Nothing tops the Throttlemeister.

I love my Throttlemeister. It'll even maintain high triple digits if you want it to.

So from the site basically you use that to set your speed but if I had to jump on the throttle real quick it would disengage itself??

Guess I'll just have to order it install it and go use it for myself.

Routing and timing. Memphis is 8 hours away. I'll get that and the other 3 once the weather warms up.

Do you count it as just riding through them or do you have to stay there for a day...
