Well yea it is functional too. I talked with Mike W. today about ordering some more center stands. He is out and his excuse was that his "Laser" was on the fritz. He said he would guarantee that I have some in a couple of weeks. I do have one of the shortened versions in stock but I am out of the regular models. I am selling all of the Dual Star stuff now and so far looks like Mr. Walburn has some nice things for dual sporting.

It universally fits all motorcycle twist grips and allows you to use the heel of your hand to hold the throttle open while allowing your fingers to relax. Significantly reduces fatigue. Can also be used in addition to a lock. 800 757 2453 ($10 USD) Darrel (I be rockin') A12 'avenger' From: "Kevin" I searched the archives for info on good alarms and locks, sure are a lot of posts on throttle locks. Anyway I am looking for a good lock for my bike and didnt find to much in the archives. I want something thats easy to use and good protection for long periods for say I was at the mall. Anyone have any experiences with Chase Harper luggage.

DIFFERENT STROKES FOR DIFFERENT FOLKS I GUESS.... When I got the tank bag last year I wasn't very impressed and thought that it would probably not last. It has now been on the bike continuously for 7-8 months and 3 Baja trips and it is holding up just fine. I now consider it a bargain.
