Default Adding Cruise Control?

I did a search without much luck.

How much trouble would it be, plus the expense to add factory or aftermarket cruise control to a Road King?

Is there an aftermarket item that's pretty popular?

Thx.

What year Road King? Harley does sell kits. At least they used to.

There's a 2009 locally that's real nice but lacks cruise.

2015 Parts & Accessories manual lists a Cruise control kit for 08-13 FLHR models pn# 77197-08. It does not show in the 2016 manual however. Might check with your dealer for availability.

I added cruise to my '10 Road King using the Harley kit. No issues, works great.

I added it to a 2008 SG I had and it was the HD part. Worked great the whole time I had it. ( 4 Years )
