The CB1100 Community Forum

Had this on a 1997 Valkyrie. Installed it on the CB1100. Hope to test it out tomorrow.

I have one on my CB. Works great!

Great machined product

I too, look forward to your test report, Razor.
However, how sure can you be of a true test without RLETs or aftermarket shorty levers???
J/K, of course.
I would like some sort of cruise/throttle control myself.

Lazer,

It looks like the cam is missing. Is it? If so you can get parts, sometimes for free, from BrakeAway

Ah, another RLET free beauty.

It does look like a part or cam is missing. Its odd because the Brake Away was made for a larger diameter throttle (Valkyrie vs CB1100). I used the largest rubber piece in the kit, and it held fine.

Did a test ride up to Grand Rapids and back (approx 100 miles, 65-75mph)
Unit worked great.
- held throttle fine
- applying front brake disabled the unit
- manual disengagement lever worked every time.

The not so good.
- only drawback was the unit made my hand feel cramped on the throttle. It takes up about 5/8".

Wasn't right for me, so I took it off. I'm sure it'll be fine for others.

Oh, the RLETs... just a personal preference to not have them on the 1100. On the hand; the CB750 & CB175 both have them

The BrakeAway on my ST takes up a lot of space on heated grips as they are not as long as the stock. Which I though was weird as they are Honda. Lucky for me I have small hands.

You're good on the RLETS. Just a little ribbing here and there to have fun on the board
