Just wondering if anyone has tried this yet.

(you may have to cut and paste link)
Looks unobtrusive. Simple to use.
May have been addressed here before.
Thanks

I think we last addressed it about a week ago. As I recall, nobody said they'd tried one. I remember it because I didn't want to drill a hole in my switch housing. I bought a Vista Cruise instead.

I was thinking the same thing about the drilling. I just like the looks of it a little better. I have some woodworking machinery with the same type lock and I'm happy with them. Have you used the Vista Cruise? Are you happy with it or just OK?

Vista works great for me. Rotated it 90 deg to get the bar out of the way. Only a little more cumbersome to engage but just as easy or even easier to disengage

Vista works great unless you have Kuryakan ISO grips. Then it's a pain in the a$$ to install. You have to grind the slip ring out so it will fit over the the oversized ISO's. Just did it.

Beezer is correct, the Vista Cruise does what they say it will, it's just not the best looking thing on my bike. (that would be me )
