The Atlas throttle control works well—better than most that I’ve used. It’s reasonably easy to set, and very easy to click off. This one’s my second, on a different bike. By far my “throttle lock”—though you can still roll the throttle off when it’s engaged.
Seems to work well. Had some trouble installing it initially, but after several tries, I got it to work properly. Customer service was helpful.
It took me a whole 8 minutes start to finish installing my Atlas Throttle Lock. It works just as advertised. It works exactly the way it should. It works exactly the at I wanted it too. Forget 5 stars I give it a 10
This gives me the reprieve I am looking for on longer rides. I thought I was going to have to upgrade my bike, but this little gadget has saved me thousands and restored my satisfaction in my current bike, a 2019 Honda CB1000R. Thanks, great product!
The build quality is "cosmic technology" grade quality. Top notch in all aspects. The installation is quite easy, once You wrap Your brain around the principle and function of the device. Click here, tighten there, off You go.
So five star product, hands down.
Also the manual, and specially the online videos are "must see", explaining every detail, so You actually know what You are doing. 👍😊
Unfortunately, sometimes even the best of products, meet the worst of mechanics, so after good 6 hours of trying, tinkering, trying more, adjusting, trying harder, and much spellcasting and cursing - I admitted defeat. My Suzuki Burgman (2023) with heated grips, is so well built and everything is so tight, that I am unable to fit the ATLAS Lock properly. And improperly fitted, it slides on the handle and is useless. 🥲
Just as I am. 🤷♂️😂
So - I hold onto the device, maybe later I will have more success, or meet and greet someone crafty, who will customize my handle so, that the lock fits. 🤷♂️😊 Losing a battle is not losing a war, so do not let my failure discourage You.
This is the best "cruise control" device out there, period.
Just took a trip from Georgia to Virginia and return. What a great device to rest your throttle hand and get the feeling back. Works great and I would highly recommend. We installed on my Honda Scrambler 500 and also on my wife’s Rebel 500. She agrees that this is a must have for a long trip.
I took a road trip last week from San Diego to Vegas and back on my Softail Deluxe. The throttle lock worked as advertised. I was able to set my throttle at freeway speed to shake out my hand from time to time. What a relief! I Highly recommend it for those long stretches. I felt safe using it too.
It isn’t anything like a factory cruise control. So don’t expect that. But it’s better than the thumb screw. I notice some movement faster and or slower on bumpy roads depending how far I have the throttle. But it does its job and I’m happy with it. Allows for hands free riding. Able to adjust gloves or phone. I recommend it.
Great product. Works great on most motorcycles, mine was an exception but managed to get it to be good enough for my needs. I am not sorry i bought it, despite my issues. Customer service is excellent.
This is my second Atlas throttle control. I am always impressed with the quality and craftsmanship of this product. It works perfectly with my cruise control expectations. I will continue to use this product again and again. Thank you, Atlas.
Was a little nervous about buying it but had a trip to NC and needed it so I got it it is great wish I would have got it before now I recommend this for everyone.
It takes a bit of faffing to set up if you've got gorilla sized hands, but with a little patience it was soon fitted.
I would suggest a few changes; the top strap is a little flimsy, it needs some pressure to grip the throttle tube and it buckled trying to make it grip. Once straightened I had to try again, successfully, maybe a thicker gauge of metal would be better.
Also the friction pad, could you perhaps rejig it so it was positioned closer to the throttle tube, maybe cut a half moon in the friction pad so it follows the circular shape of the throttle tube?? My cable housing/starter switch has a 10mm flat next to the tube, then bevels out. With the friction pad's current position only 50% of the pad makes contact with the flat.
I had intended to nip across the Channel to France, but had to postpone, so as yet I've not proved it's worth, but running up and down motorways and the like it has impressed me, just making adjustments going up and down hills. You could sit there all day long on the flat, it really does work and is easily disengaged. I like it!
When I first purchased the atlas throttle lock, it wasn’t working for me, but then I contacted the company and then they help me get it right. It works amazing. The support is great.
They sent the unit with the wrong clamp arm, which made a PITA installation impossible. On the bright side, they sent a replacement out overnight FedEx and it worked. Everybody makes mistakes; the proof of the customer service is how they correct a mistake.
I was easy to install. I just used it on a 2200-mile trip. It worked fine. I like that I could adjust my speed as I was riding with the group and speed varied all the time. The Atlas allowed my wrist and hand grip to rest and stretch when I needed it. Thank you for the product.
After my fourth shoulder repair, I needed some way to relax my right arm on long rides. I heard about the Atlas Throttle lock on Adventure Rider Radio, so ordered one for the bike on which I would take my next long trip. It took minutes to install (though I did use the wrong size friction pad the first time and had to do it over..my fault) and does exactly what it says it does. One button holds the throttle in place, though it’s easy to turn it if the need arises, and the other instantly releases it. The engineering in the device is amazing.
The Atlas Throttle Lock is a great solution for bikes that don’t have cruise control. It’s neat, very slick looking and easy to mount. The instructions are super easy to follow. The only thing to really focus on really is choosing the right version (Top or Bottom kit), but the guide on their website is very helpful. I’ve mounted mine on a 2024 Triumph Scrambler and did a 6k trip with it over the summer without issues. Just bear in mind it's not cruise control, it just holds the throttle in place, so be mindful on up and down hill stretches.
I was suffering from “numb thumb” every time I rode my Yamaha ATV. After converting it to a Motion Pro twist throttle…it helped, but I still needed to give my right hand a break every now and then. The Atlas fit on the Motion Pro perfectly, and now when I need to shake out my right hand, I put it on cruise and steer with my left hand for a minute or so. Perfect solution! Also, when winching in neutral, it’s nice to set a higher idle with the Atlas (in neutral of course). The Atlas has made long ATV trips much more enjoyable. Buy it!
Very reliable and much better than the low-priced copies. Not a substitute for an electronic cruise control, but very useful for giving your hand a break, especially on long flat stretches.
I installed the Atlas throttle lock years ago on my KTM690. I really like it and would buy it again. The new pads work well
It works as it should and I didn’t have any problems with it; even when it had gotten wet.
I purchased the atlas cruise control for a 25 year old motorcycle. From the start I knew it was a good call. Even the packaging it came in was of the highest quality. Instructions were well laid out for installing the unit. Having been in the machine trades for fourty years, I was thoroughly impressed with its build quality. Thanks for a great product.
