Do a search for Vista Cruise. Best $22 you'll ever spend. I have one on my ULY and it sure came in handy when I rode it home to Orlando from Appleton!

Hey Brillo,check out the throttlemeister cruise control at throttlemeister.com.I chose it because I wanted to reduce bar vibration and have cruise control as an added benefit.
The neat thing about them is they work well,and don't look like anything other than bar end weights.I have been totally satisfied,although I maybe should have gotten the heavy ones instead.Numb hands are a problem for me and they help a bunch.They're expensive,but you get what you pay for usually.

Second that on the T-Meister. Serves dual purpose as a barend damper, and it's design simplicity is a real head-slapper.

Problem being... You can't use the hand guards with the throttlemeister.

I have morphed a vista cruise on to just about every bike that I have oened. Beyond simple and extremely cheap. Easy to use as well.
Good call Frank.

So, let me get this straight... The Vista Cruise, Yamaha model is the one to get? I ordered the NEP cruise from RideNow.Com because it's much thinner. I figured that one would be easier to fit, but it wouldn't work with the angled surfaces of the switchgear.

I've been using a $.15 cruise control (O ring) but it's time to splurge.

Yeah the Throttlemeister sounds like the way to go IF it wasn't for the hand guards.
