It took me half the damm winter but I finaly finished the Vista Cruise. I think I found a decent way to mount it but I need to put down some miles to see how it holds up. I even had a machine shop quote a batch of the screws already and I may check how much it is to get some of the throttle tubes set up without the rim that had to be removed. Basicaly I will put together some 08/09 KLR650 Vista Cruise adapter kits if it works. This is in case someone else out there has screwed up their wrists snowboarding too. I documented how I did it at the page below. Please let me know what you think of the means of locking it's rotation. http://www.ginsucity.com/klr650-throttle-lock ~Chris

Chris, I wish you would post some pictures of your installation. I have already taken a dremmel tool and remove the rim, but stopped there. This is a simple but effective alternative, the "Big O ring: http://picasaweb.google.com/fmh3469/08KLR650E8F#5270491319278234610 Mike H

For anyone contemplating a "Vista Cruise": go with the "Universal". You can probably install it in a 1/2 hour IF you don't have to remove 'Barkbusters'. Ed

Just take the normal type and use household Goop to glue it on. Mine worked for 35,000 miles before I had to pull it off for some maintenance. Glues right back on. Never failed me. Works on pretty much any bike, although you may have to either build up a mound of glue in a couple of applications or glue a spacer on for some bikes.

I guess this thing just goes through one's email address book and sends an invitation to everybody or group on your address list. Sorry. Criswell

<><><><><><><><><> <><><><><><><><><> Fred, Thanks for the photo and instruction links. I was thinking the 08s and 09s were a bit different than the pre 08 right side controls. I'm also interested in seeing it with a barkbuster installed. Lots of ways to skin the throttle lock cat. : ) Best, Jeff Saline ABC # 4412 South Dakota Airmarshal Airheads Beemer Club www.airheads.org The Beautiful Black Hills of South Dakota 75 R90/6, 03 KLR650, 79 R100RT . ____________________________________________________________ Click to get free auto insurance quotes from top companies. http://thirdpartyoffers.juno.com/TGL2141/fc/BLSrjpTImHZdfDV3oOCcnP0Nukn3lRYAR94SMYiwF8eoA07p0Wg9dDPPOgw/

The Universal Vista Cruise takes up about 3 or 4 times as much room on the grip as the standard Vista Cruise. With "barkbusters" you would need a very small hand to fit on what's left of the grip. Fred www.arrowheadmotorsports.com
