Crampbuster/throttle paddles

JCCJMM_ · September 22nd, 2008, 03:55 PM

Anyone use one of these?

Saw the Crampbuster on Ebay for $10 shipped.
Good for long trips??

Cheap enough that it's worth trying. I've used them on prior bikes, and yes, they help a bit, especially if the bike has a stiffer throttle spring. The ninjette has such a light-action throttle though, that I'm not sure if ninjette riders would see much benefit.

I have one, and find it useful on long trips.

You don`t have to go to Ebay to get one for Ten Dollars. That is the going price at most motorcycle dealers. They are well worth it and I wouldn`t leave home without one. Support your local motorcycle shop. They need your support a lot more than Ebay.

That's true as long as they don't gouge your wallet. I don't have a reputable dealer near me, so I'm fine buying elsewhere.

Scott, There is a difference between a dealer and a motorcycle shop. We are fortunate to have two motorcycle shops in the area. The dealer is 50 miles away. These guys are specialists. One is really good with sportbikes and the other is good with old Brit Bikes, Bimmers, and Touring stuff. Like my bike shop. I am not a dealer, but work on all bikes except BMX. My preference is working on high line racing machines and restoring classics--like ItalVegas, and Schwinn Paramount.
