um yeah well, it was 1200 when it was offered and had inventory..
so, special orders are fulfilled for a reason.
talking to ppl who have true cruise, they would not do w/o it..
if i dont do it now and in the future cant get for any price, i would
always kick myself.

You have to do what you think is right for you. I bought a 93 Dodge diesel pickup in 97. Here in Canada a command start is nice to have for the winter. I am still driving the truck, and still saying next fall I'm putting a command start in. Should have done it when I first got it

Well I took couple pics from my phone..apparently forum file size limit won't allow my pics..god what a hassle..sorry,
tho All you can see on the bike is the extra buttons on the switch pods...I'll try again if I can re size them..
The unit has a control module that mounts at the transmission and the Shotgun Shock uses the alternate mounting style do the two play together like they were born that way..

Is that cruise switch all that you use, or do you have another some where you have to use also. It is kind of hard to see, is there a button to the right of the cruise switch.
