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

Great machined product Thumbs Up

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. Thumbs Up

I would like some sort of cruise/throttle control myself. Biker

Lazer,

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

redbirds_imp · 07-14-2015, 11:12 AM

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 Big Grin

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 Smile
