Default Cruise??? Seat??? Advice...

Guys/Gals:

Any options for some sort of cruise to add to my Rocker C other than the screwy throttle control? My friend was talking about something he had (he lives 700 miles away) on his old bike to where he would get the trottle down to wherever he wanted, and then clicked a little switch that went INTO the trottle and then it was held at whatever speed he was going ...something aftermarket?

Also, seat on the rocker....ok, but i'm a bit worried with it for a say, 650+ trip. Any seats available yet that i may not know of? Ever heard of just adding padding by say a pro upholstry person??? Was just a thought. Any ideas appreciated.

Love my harley, my first bike (ever)....i'm a friggin' addict!!!!

--Jason

Rockerjay, there is a dealer on the forum that redoes your existing seat, reshapes and uses better pad material I believe. I think it is meancity cycles.
