Here’s some fitting instructions
I've been using throttle paddles from various manufacturers over the years & while typically effective in general- they tend to either be low cost & cheap looking/a bit flimsy~ or expensive and good quality plastic & strong, fairly rigid construction. This product is a curious one. It's price is very low & the plastic quality is excellent. The only real issue is that it uses a rubber strip instead of a rubber tube to fit between the handlebar grip & the paddle body to provide friction & prevent slippage. ~ this rubber strip is challenging to install as it needs to be initially fed inbetween the grip & the paddle..I recommend a pair of long nose pliers for this task. Once some of the rubber strip is partially fed in- turn the paddle & it will pull the rest in. Take your time setting up the paddle- start a little low & working it up in increments. If you rotate it too much the rubber strip will come out & you'll need to start the whole process again. On the bright side- once it's properly set up, it won't slip at all. View detail
Also on Doca 900SS
I had Throttle assist on all my Motorcycles except the Doca, and I didn't think I needed it on my SType S Motorcycle, but the other day on the highway I thought it might be a good idea to have it on the Doca. I would recommend it for cruising on the highway at a constant speed as it will reduce the burden on your shoulders. View detail
Convenient for long touring
The large size is just right and eases the fatigue of long touring. View detail

Throttle assist is installed on most of the motorcycles I own, and it is very useful for large motorcycles to reduce fatigue when touring. It may take some getting used to, but you will soon get used to it. when adjusting the throttle assist, turn the Axel to the closed position. View detail
easy manual cruise control
I have used many type of throttle assist but most of them are not fixed when I turn the throttle on a long journey, especially when it rains. I installed CF Posh throttle assist on Suzuki V-strom 1000 (and now on Ducati SF), it can fasten to the throttle grip so I feel very comfortable during long journeys. View detail
Fixed with Magic belt
I think the larger the diameter of the handlebar, the tighter it will stay in place. I do not use it for highway driving, but I use it to reduce stiffness in my shoulders. View detail

Easy on the wrist
I leave Throttle assist on because of tendonitis.
It takes some getting used to, but it reduces wrist strain considerably.
The high speed is outstanding and useful.
As for demerit, the adjustment rubber will be gone before you know it, and you will need to fix it every time it gapes a little, block the grip heater, and change the grip position every time you want to use the pass.
Although it is an easy Goods, until you get used to it, there will be a fair amount of times when you don't notice a blip or a gap and before you know it, the speed has slowed down.

Easy Touring
Installed on CYGNUS X.
After all, long distance (It's 125cc, so it's about 300Km.) It was really easier to run than I had imagined.
I was afraid of damaging the Accelerator grip because it was very hard when I installed it on the Accelerator grip.

Great for touring. Try a few different positions on the bar in a parking lot before you take it out
I've used a few variations of throttle assist grips over the years and so far this has been my personal favorite. The full palm grip doesn't make a huge difference but it gives you a bit more feel than some of the smaller surface area grips out there.They all work but for a few extra bucks I personally prefer having more surface area under my hand to work with to control my throttle.This little price of plastic has made long trips a helluva lot less taxing on my wrist and the occasional numbness is pretty much gone. You just let your hand rest on it and it keeps the throttle where you need it. DO take your time getting the angle on this thing EXACTLY where you want it and ride it around a parking lot a few times before you get out into traffic. I almost pitched my bike up into a wheelie the first time I tried it out. You want it angled just slightly up from where your hand rests on the handlebars. View detail
price-worthy
It cracked within two months of being put on.
Too bad

Essential for long journeys!
We also used it for the Japan round trip.
I bought it anyway because it was cheap and I didn't have high expectations, but it is a great cosmetic product and my hands don't hurt at all!
It is simple to use, and I think it will be an easy companion for your first trip.
However, it is a minus point that it interferes with slight arm movements and slightly alienates normal movements.
But it's cheap, so when you travel, 1pc. or Quantity:2pc. Set is definitely a good thing to have.

Effective at high speeds where available
Purchased for driving 567 km on the highway within approximately 600 km one way in SEROW.
Since we entered the highway around 1:00 a.m. when the date was about to change, there were almost no regular cars and only Trucks and Highway Buses were left, so this product really came into its own and made driving very easy. It is very convenient on highways that are not crowded and have a constant speed.
As the sun rises and the number of general vehicles increases, Accelerator operation increases, so on the contrary, the frequency of use has decreased. The frequency of use has also decreased on busy public roads.
The Magic tape is wrapped tightly around the GRU to ensure a secure installation.

Convenient to highways
I bought it when I started driving on the highway a lot. It is very convenient to cruise just by putting the lower side of my palm on it.
However, there was a time when it was always there and it got stuck during Axel onOff and I was a little impatient, so I put it down so that it does not get stuck when going down the road.

Not like the cheap stuff.
Vehicle:Ninja 250 (JBK-EX250L)
Grip:Endurance Grip heaterHG115 (Grip diameter 34Φ)
Inexpensive ones are available for about 500-700 yen, but they are not as strong as this product and will crack and become unusable after several uses (or at worst the first use).
However, this product has high strength and high quality, so it can be used for a long time without replacement, resulting in better cost performance.
(although 1,320 yen is hard to come by when there are less expensive ones out there...)
As for the effects, high speed cruising became easier and fatigue was reduced.
It was also made in Canada. (It was made in Canada, which is very rare.)

Touring essentials
I think it is a necessity for long touring, etc.
The hand fatigue after touring is completely different with and without this.
I have put this on all my cars in the past.
I can no longer go Touring without it.
I recommended it to my wife and she was delighted.

difficult
The Large size is useful for touring use, but this kind of product ends up breaking due to lack of strength. What is strange is that this kind of product does not have Material:The lack of Carbon. Carbon, which absorbs vibration, is flexible and strong, and should be an excellent material. View detail

[How is it used?
I bought this as a useful Goods for my Motorcycle commuting, which gives me more opportunities to drive.
Was the one you received as per Image?
Street Image
Was the installation difficult?
If the grip system is small, it was easy to install because it is just a matter of wrapping the rubber plate around it.
How was your experience with it?
I can turn it just by putting the palm of my hand on it, which makes it very easy.
[Included Parts:were they on?
Yes
[Was there anything that disappointed you?
Nothing in particular, just replace each time it deteriorates due to ultraviolet rays, etc.

My wrists are comfortable.
As you can imagine, the effect is that Throttle becomes lighter, and just by accompanying it, driving at a constant speed + some ups and downs is easy.
However, the freedom of grip is lost, and even though I am using a soft grip (Pro grip), the grip on my small finger, ring finger and middle finger is not as comfortable as it should be.
It did not MATCH me.
