Default Cruise Control
Question for other 08 owners.....

If you have the cruise control on... the run switch on and the ignition switch on.....

BIKE NOT RUNNING....

If you pull the clutch in does your cruise light go from orange to green?

Thanks....

I ahve been have code po577 show up. but i think it's fixed but I can't remember if it did this before the trouble.

Cruise can only be engaged at a certain speed range. I can't remember the range off the top of my head, I think around 30 - 85 mph.

Your question made me curious so I went out to the garage and tried it. My cruise light stays orange.
