<<Do you use a throttle lock on that scooter?>>

When I used to ride I'd wrap a rubber band between the throttle and the hand guard. Worked as a cruise control but not so much tension that you couldn't back it off.

I have a cramp buster, which is a paddle that fits tightly on the throttle. I rest the my hand on it and it allows you to rest the hand. Problem is you can't take your right hand off the handlebar. My right hand numbed up on me yesterday early in the ride. Turned out the wrist band on the glove was too tight and was cutting off circulation. I loosened it and was fine the rest of the day.

Vista Cruise is a good, inexpensive throttle lock.

From what people have said the Break-a-Way cruise control is the best option, and most expensive, at about $185. It releases when you tap the front brake handle.
