Hi folks,
I'm back home after heading to Montana for Going-To-The-Sun Road.
Saturday morning I got up and got ready. Checked the air in my tires,
ironed a nice crease in my chaps, and filled up with gas. I left
Calgary at 9am and took highway 22 south. They call that road the
Cowboy Trail and it's a pretty ride through rolling foothills with the
Rocky Mountains in view. Real nice stuff.
I passed through a bit of Waterton National Park right before the
border crossing. The US border guards were really friendly as usual.
Once in the US the road skirts

I really appreciate the searching effort and the link. My right hand is
still hurting a bit, but I work as a computer guy so RSI is always a
bit of an issue.
Insert jokes about my right hand always hurting a bit.
I also phoned around about springer windshields today. Dealer wants
$410 CAD for the windshield and $100 CAD for the mounting hardware. I
just missed one on ebay for $200 so I'll have to keep looking there.
$500 is too much.

that is exactly it. it is almost an exact knock off of the original
throttle rocker. i wonder if the patent on the original t.r. 1 ran out and
that is why it was redesigned and these folks are making almost exact
knockoffs? i just ordered three of them while i had the webpage up. the
models 1, 2 and 3.
thanx,
michael

Actually, it's the other way around, IIRC. The Throttle Rocker infringes
on the Cramp Buster patent, in the US. I think they're still selling the
original TR in Europe.
