Default Do you use cruise control?

They just posted about the a cruise control kit on the HP, and it occurred to me that I've never used CC on a bike. Plenty of times in a car, obviously. Do you use CC on your bike?

All the time. If I'm going to be on the freeway for more than 10 or 15 miles it's one. First bike I've ever had with it. Love it.

All the time on the freeway...when traffic is moving, or I'm in the carpool lane.

Always,have some arthritis and repetitive motion injuries. Cruise makes the ride much more enjoyable. Anytime on the highway it's on.

I don't know how much I would use the CC if I had a license to speed. But I don't, so I use it most of the time. Otherwise, I find myself doing 20 over before I know it.

When I first had my bike, I didn't like it, but now I love it. I don't use it on curvy roads, or in the rain.
