    Omni-Cruise throttle lock review.

The Breakaway, also pretty sweet looking but there is no chance of me paying $150+ for a throttle locking device. Not happening. I landed on a Go Cruise 2...

    Cruise Control/throttle lock

    Just ordered one for my ZX14. Since I ride cross country so much on the bike and long distances, I figured this would be nice and cheap.

    Rear Caliper Lock up - want to upgrade

    I think my rear caliper has about had it. It has locked up on me and that's the last straw. Instead of just replacing with OEM I was wondering if there are any specific upgrade models you guys installed on your Maxes. If anyone can point me in the right direction i'd appreciate it. I did a...

    steering lock - fall over

    When you guys activate your steering lock and turn the wheel all the way to the right does your max feel stable? Mine feels like it could fall over in the wind?
