Default BrakeAway Cruise Control

Has anyone else installed the BrakeAway Cruise Control?
At 1st I thought $200 was too much money, but the product is very well built, it does just what they said it will do and last week I was on the Freeway doing 80 when someone pulled into my lane right in front of me, I hit the brakes and the cruise disengaged right away and it didn't turn into a bad situation, then for a few miles down the road I thought of what would have happened if I went with the Vista Cruise or one of the other clamps, I don't think I would have instinctively been able to deactivate the clamp quick enough to save my butt, so for me $200 was peanuts for such a good product that probably helped save my life, I love to ride, but it's not worth dieing for!

DISCLAIMER: I am not a representitive for BrakeAway Products, but when I come accross good products, I make sure I let others know about them, I have made many of my buying decisions based in part on what others have said about them.

P.S. It did take awhile to install correctly, I think like many of the products we buy, they were not specifically made for this bike, but will fit it with a little persuasion!

Thanks for the info. I have a 30-minute ride into work each day and was looking for the right add-on for this. Wasn't too sure about the throttle rocker or throttle lock - those sound kind of dangerous.
