    Vista Cruise Control?

    Does a Vista cruise control work with our heated grips or are they too fat? Like the ones in the eBay link below. I have a Go Cruise and it works well but I have had a Vista cruise before and am sorta used to that.

    They won't fit, totally different handlebar and controls than cruisers have.
    I have Throttlemeister, it works great and it looks great but costs more than vista cruise or go cruise. It depends what is important to you.

    Except the Throttlemiester won't work with Kury ISO grips ant the skinny little OEM grips give my big hands cramps in no time. The ISO fat grips work great for me so I just use a extended throttle Boss

    I use super sharkskins neoprene grip covers, here is the link:

    They are very comfortable, very cushy, seem long lasting, feel warm in cold weather and cool in heat, any make grips much thicker. They also look good, to me, and are inexpensive and easy to install. They also protect the original grips and prevent their wear.

    I use grip covers too from Parts Unlimited with the Throttlemiester.

    Any issues using the Throttlemeister with the heated grips?

    On my VFR, installing the Throttlemeister under my Oxford heated grips was a maximum PITA. Only slightly less so on the Ducati (which since the grip heater had a lip on it already required using an exacto knife to carve off the lip on the Throttlemeister friction sleeve).
