TOPIC: Kaoko Throttle Lock Cruise Control for '09 - VMax

Kaoko Throttle Lock Cruise Control for '09 - VMax 2 years 6 months ago #1

Alright, before anyone throws down a comment about how this board category is for "Installed VMax Modifications and Accessories", I KNOW.

I wish I had the option of using one of these, but I can't install this with the bar end mirrors I've installed. Just thought some might find this worthwhile. Someone is always asking for cruise control options, so add this to the list!

The Kaoko Cruise Control is a pricey cruise control option at $110, but it has a replacement bar end weight that matches/fits our bikes.

Shaun, Here's another reason someone can't use it ! I have Python Motorsports bar-ends on both my Max's ! I think that Tom will jump on it for his Scooter ! Sparky	Marks9222 OFFLINE Platinum Max Posts: 3664 Thank you received: 424

Sparky Theres only one problem with that logic 666, to have a cruise control you have to "cruise", and I don't cruise ont the Scoot. Its all business.	tomf5327 OFFLINE Gold Max Posts: 1037 Thank you received: 112
