    Just ordered Kaoko :)

    I just placed an order for kaoko from Revzilla. After several weeks of waiting I got an email from them that they have it in stock. I really hope this darn thing works. This is my last try on throttle lock. Next step will be --------.

    A throttle lock somewhat like the throttlemiester. I spent a lot of time looking at both before I went with the TM.

    Both use friction to keep adjustable tention on the throttle. I'm sure someone can give a better technical description. Cosmetically the TM looks more like a stock grip end. The Kaoko has knuckles on it. Which is better? No idea. Somebody has probably tried both.

    No reason the Kaoko wouldn't work UNLESS you have HeliBars. That combo isn't compatible.

    I had a similar product from Kuryakyn a few years ago that looked like it was made for the grip. Couldn't tell that it was an add on. Problem was, once set, it would continue to accelerate, even though it was just a tad at a time. Never would it just keep a steady pace. I wonder if any of these other ones do the same thing.

    If the Kaoko wont work w/Heli's , neither will the TM.

    I went w/Kaoko as the castellated 'nut' is super easy to grab/move w/gloves on,,,, The 'smoother' flavors like Kury and TM can be kinda slickery w/o enough 'squeeze' applied.
