Safety Information

Your safety is paramount. The TOTSS Throttle Lock is designed as an assist device and not a substitute for active throttle control. Always maintain full awareness and control of your motorcycle.

  • Understanding Operation: Before riding, ensure you fully understand how to engage and disengage the throttle lock. Practice in a safe, open area away from traffic.
  • Effortless Disengagement: The device is designed for quick disengagement by simply pushing the throttle forward. There are no buttons or levers to locate in an emergency, allowing for immediate manual throttle control.
  • Terrain Awareness: Be aware that speed may slightly increase when going downhill and decrease when going uphill when the throttle lock is engaged. Always be prepared to manually adjust the throttle.
  • Regular Checks: Periodically check the tension and secureness of the throttle lock during rides to ensure it remains properly positioned and does not loosen.
  • Not for Constant Use: This device is intended for use on long, open stretches of road where a steady speed can be maintained. It is not recommended for use in heavy traffic, winding roads, or situations requiring frequent speed adjustments.

Setup and Installation

Installing your TOTSS Throttle Lock is a straightforward process that takes less than a minute. No special tools are required.

  1. Prepare Handlebar: Ensure the area on your handlebar near the throttle grip is clean and free of obstructions.
  2. Slide Rubber Ring: Slide the included rubber ring onto the handlebar, positioning it just inside the throttle grip. This ring provides secure attachment and prevents slippage.
  3. Attach Throttle Lock: Position the throttle lock over the rubber ring and throttle grip. Ensure the main body of the lock is aligned to rest against the brake lever when engaged.
  4. Lightly Tighten: Adjust the tension screw on the throttle lock until it lightly grips the throttle. The goal is to allow smooth engagement and disengagement without excessive force.

Operating Instructions

Once installed, operating the TOTSS Throttle Lock is intuitive.

Engaging the Throttle Lock:

  1. Reach Desired Speed: Accelerate your motorcycle to the desired cruising speed.
  2. Roll Throttle and Hold: Maintain the throttle position that holds your desired speed.
  3. Engage Lock: With your thumb or index finger, press the TOTSS Throttle Lock down so it rests firmly against the brake lever. This action locks the throttle in its current position.
  4. Cruise On: You can now relax your throttle hand, and the motorcycle will maintain its speed.

Disengaging the Throttle Lock:

  • Manual Roll-Off: To disengage, simply roll the throttle forward manually as you normally would to reduce speed. The throttle lock will release its grip.
