Default Cruise control

How come more HD models, soft tails , don’t have cruise? Can HD cruise control be had and installed by HD mechanics?

My 2018 softtail has cruise control. Never thought I would use it. Boy was I wrong. I've done some long rides on expressways and love the cruise control. My fingers get numb after a while of riding. The high speed vibration and ape hangers don't help.

I think there is a HD CC that has the regular switches, exactly like would come from the factory

If you have a star wheel throttle lock this installs 10 seconds and is almost invisible.
