I have one on my DL650 and like it. Easy to use and works well. Not a bar end weight though.

I have the Kaoko on my Strom and the throttlemeister on the FJR and BMW. Both work fine, but I prefer the TM's - they're smoother, more precise, and better made. Also, some on advrider.com have long backorders and non-responsiveness from AW.

I have used one on my FJR for the past few years. I prefer this to the throttlemeister. It is easy to apply and install and I prefer it's simple design. I bought one for my Wee Strom as well.

I will also tell you that Andrew Fekete at Adventurers Workshop is first rate. When I ordered my second one his website told me that there would be a delay as the item was out of stock. I was fine with this. I then rode my Wee to the BMW MOA Nat'l in West Bend, WI and found Adventurers Workshop was there as a vendor. I noticed that they had a Kaoko throttle control for my Wee. I thought maybe if I asked I could swap this one for the one I had ordered (it had arrived the day after I left home). I approached Andrew with my idea and he actually offered to do just that before I could ask. He told me to pull my bike over and he would install it, then just send the one I had ordered back. He didn't ask for my name, number, a credit card nothing. In my experience it is very hard to find a vendor these days that would do such a thing. I fully expected him to give me some BS excuse why he couldn't make this happen. Instead he knew what I was thinking and made my ride home much more enjoyable.

It looks like a red version of what I did for $3, so you now owe me $107. I'll give you a break and not charge for the tax or shipping.
