Throttle RockerHand get tired on a long ride? Maybe you need a Throttle Rocker!
The Throttle Rocker is a device that wraps around the throttle grip of your motorcycle. The end protrudes out from the grip to form a contoured portion that comfortably fits the palm of your hand. Using the heel of your hand, you apply downward pressure on the Throttle Rocker and the throttle grip rotates. With a Throttle Rocker you don't have to squeeze the grip to operate the throttle. This means less fatigue and cramping of your hand, because a "death grip" is no longer required to hold throttle speed.
There are more elegant solutions on the market (throttle locks, cruise controls, Throttlemeister) but none as cost-effective as the simple Throttle Rocker.

Places 2 Ride TV
"You see things vacationing on a motorcycle in a way that is completely different from any other. In a car you're always in a compartment, and because you're used to it you don't realize that through that car window everything you see is just more TV. You're a passive observer and it is all moving by you boringly in a frame."
