Wobby seems the only Cruise control seen lately resides on your new pet Mishka's motorcycle.

Oh and just had another slice of Joe's Panna forte CAKE it was delicious ............... did you get one  [laugh]

I got my wife a new car early last year and one of the pre-requisites of it was cruise control.  I even use it to drive to the servo up the road.  This could be a very good thing.  I do believe it is one thing that saves my license in her car.

On the ST3 I just use an 'O' ring between the throttle and the barend.
Same thing, still a friction device.

Little bit harder to remove than that thing but no where near as ugly!
plus it cost nothing, because I have a swag of them in the garage.  :)   [thumbsup]

I use a throttlemeister too, great for the boring straight bits of road.
