In addition to home-made assemblies, there are a number of throttle locks and other mechanical devices available at low cost that have been used by motorcycle riders to maintain a constant throttle opening.

 

Before you consider this type of device please be aware that its use may at least invalidate your insurance and be illegal in some countries, or at worst cause an accident.

 

We do not sell or advocate the use of this type of device

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTES

The purpose of fitting a cruise control to a motorcycle is to improve comfort, fuel consumption and useability of the bike both during commuting and for long distance cruising.

 

Any accessory or modification affecting the control of a motorcycle must be legal, reliable and above all safe in operation.

CAR CRUISE CONTROLS

Some motorcycle owners have modified car cruise controls to fit their bikes and have published advice and installation instructions to allow others to follow their example.

 

Modified car cruise controls may also be available commercially.

 

No matter how competent you are mechanically, before you undertake any installation involving a modified car cruise control please carefully consider the following points.

 

You have no way of evaluating published advice and installation instructions unless they are examined and approved by a competent independent person.

 

Car cruise controls are not fail-safe. In the event of a sudden failure a car’s brakes may be good enough to stop a car safely. But if a powerful bike’s throttle is stuck wide open its brakes will not stop the bike.

 

Car cruise ontrols will not fit motorcycles without some modification to mounting brackets, levers and cables. The space available for modification on a bike is severely limited and all components need extensive testing under all riding conditions to ensure that chafing or jamming cannot occur.

 

On a bike you need an electro-mechanical device that is independent of the cruise control to ensure that the rider remains in full control of the throttle even if the cruise control fails.

 

Car cruise controls are designed and approved for use only on cars.

 

We only sell cruise controls that have been specifically designed for use on motorcycles and ATV’s.

 

Our products have been independently tested in the UK and awarded Type Approval (e-mark) for use on motorcycles and ATV’s by the government Vehicle Certification Agency.

 

We will not supply components to enable modification of car cruise controls for use on motorcycles.
