Riders across the country are raving about Throttler Grips!
Motorcycle riders who have discovered The Throttler will tell you that they've improved their ride and their enjoyment. Here's what the media and our fans have to say:
Hot Rod's Bike Works on The Throttler:
"We wish we had one installed for our trip to Sturgis."
(December 2006)
...No matter how much we rode during the week, the constant pressure on the wrist over sustained hours caused the wrist to ache the next day. Cruise control would have come in handy, but it is not offered on some of our bikes. The solution is the Throttler from 50s Boy in Simi Valley, California...read more (PDF).
And what our customers have to say:
It was great meeting and talking with you and your brother at the Ness Show in San Jose this past weekend. I bought one of your Throttlers at the Laughlin River Run this past year (2007). By the time I rode the 500 miles home, I was convinced it was a great product.
However, on the trip to and from Sturgis I became a true believer. The unit works exceptionally well on the long up and down grades through Wyoming. With a twist of the throttle and a few clicks up or down you have great Intuitive speed control.
Looks great, works great, made in America, what else could you ask for! It was the best money I ever spent on my bike. (period).
Thanx again, See ya in Laughlin.

My name is Jim Dixon. I live in Riverside, CA & we met in Laughlin this past year when I made it a point to stop by & tell you how much I think of your product. I had decided sometime prior to Laughlin that I was going to install a throttle lock on my 01 Roadking. I do a lot of riding over long distances and when you do that kind of riding, you really need to have something to take the strain off your wrist & fingers. I wanted to buy the best unit out there, so I did some comparisons via the Internet; I looked at the Vista Cruise, BreakAway, Kuryakyn & your product, The Throttler. I finally decided to go with The Throttler based on the video on your website & the fact that it looked solidly build & would not detract from the aesthetic of my bike. I ended up having the "Throttler" installed & as I said earlier in this email, I could not be happier with the product. I have people come up & look at my bike all the time & I always point out The Throttler.

Last week I had a chance to replace my old throttle control with the new Throttler. I worked just perfectly. Thanks so much for your kind assistance.

I installed the Throttler on a Bourgets Lo Blow. Before I had it installed, the bike was difficult to enjoy because my right hand was always stinging numb. I now enjoy the bike as much as I do my Ultra Classic.
David in Dallas, Texas
The Throttler is an excellent example of design ingenuity and production quality. I heartily recommend the Throttler for any rider whose travels involve highway or interstate miles. I should add that this is an unsolicited testimonial, voluntarily provided by me in recognition of a quality product.
Dick in Dallas, Texas
I had an accident on the freeway while riding my bike. A truck cut me off in the fast lane and I was unable to decelerate quick enough using the stock "throttle control" thumbwheel. I survived but the bike didn't, and neither did my confidence. I discovered the Throttler and now I am back on a new bike and feel safer.
