Has anyone used Throttle assist or after market cruise control on their bikes?

This weekend I rode down to Atlantic City, NJ. Took me 2 hours to get there. It was my first long journey. I noticed my right wrist and all my fingers got really number and stiff. It was almost like i had no feeling in it. There is a high chance I might have Carpel Tunnel or some type of tendons issue. I wanted to know if anyone ever used Throttle assist for long rides. Here are the few examples i am talking about.



 
Get a throttle rocker and one of these and you'll be set..

I have the go cruise (the first picture) there one 20 bucks on Ebay and work great
 
jaindesi, get the rocker with the contour, as in your first picture.. the other version is junk and you will kill yourself.

the go-cruise is 20 bucks and change.. go for them both, you'll be happy..

I am!

or consider the vista cruise. see link. reasonably priced at chapparal, m/c superstore and ebay. takes a bit of massaging to get it installed correctly but works on stock and heated grips. actually holds speed well on flat roads and gives you a chance to get off the throttle, move your arm and hand around and shake things out to relieve numbness. have them on my Uly and 1 of my lightnings, work nicely.

I also have the contoured one, called a Cramp Buster. It helps loads on long trips. It is a bit awkward around town though, I take it off once the trip is over.
 
Thanks everyone. I'll get something for next riding season as this was my last ride and will put the bike in storage.
 
I have a CrampBuster, I rotate it around out of the way when I am in town.
