Just taken delivery of a Kaoko Throttle Lock from the states. On first inspection it seems an excelent piece of kit, far better than others I have seen advertised.
It basically replaces the end weight and has a large easily gripped nut which can be moved to make contact with the handlebar grip. As it is a left hand thread, it grips as you open the throttle and closes as....... if you are using it.
A bit expensive at about £60 all in but very useful on a long trip and cooler than simply putting the heated grips on! Mine is fitted on an 1150 but they are available for other models including the 12GS.
They may be viewed on www.kaoko.com
I bought mine from Adventure Touring which has a link. They were very friendly and helpful.
