If so, how do you like it? I was hoping that Brake-Away would have the Busa control out already, but I see they dont.

hogger has one but I don't know that he has "used" it outside of installation and making it look purrrty.

Where ya @ hogger?

I have the TM and can't imagine highway/interstate riding for any distance without it...
Since it is only a friction lock, it works well and is easily overridden by twisting the throttle...
I am a huge fan....
Did you want to know something specific?

I got the heavy weight TM and LOVE it. Works very well especially on long trips on long straightaways. Installation took very minimal trimming of the undergrip and I lucked out with only two attempts at getting the shims just right.

MC, nothing specific, just checking to verify their advertisement talk. Wanted to make sure real ppl were enjoying it. Ordering today. The ride from Tucson to Sierra Vista is 80miles, all I-10 pretty much and throttle hand was asking for a buzz-numbing break

If you get the heavy ones, they will help dampen out vibrations as well... Worst part about them is that damn red line... I just used model paint to color the groove blue

You won't be sorry!

I've got them too and just painted them completely black. Think they look a lot better that way. I can't speak as highly for them as the other guys, but then again I don't do a lot of long-distance straight riding. I end up rarely using them because it just seems very difficult to get the speed exactly right. It always seems like its either creeping up or falling off

I haven't had this problem too much, other than at up or down grades - maybe your shimming is a little off?

I seen that redline and first thought was order the heavy set in Black, and M-Nu the redline! Should match up pretty good after that. Well, I guess I'll get my ordering done now. Thanks again guys.

I would never own a motorcycle without one. Definitely worth the money IMO.

Went ahead and ordered it, got the Heavy model as well, from the reviews I think I'm going to appreciate this little mod. Next up, alter a decal braket to fit my front end so I can put my DoD Stickers on, since I wont put any stickers on the bike itself.

Had one on my 02LE. I really didn't use it much because our roads out here are mostly twisties. Works better if you live where the roads are straighter. It looks great though! (IMHO)
