Love it - just a word of caution. It won't change gears for you (obviously) so you could be running level at 70mph in 6th and then get to an incline. Cruise control dulls your awareness that you could be lugging the engine. It's not happened to me - but I can't help thinking it's something to be aware of.

Mine was already on my RK Classic when I got it. Thought it was something I wouldn't use until my first road trip. Couldn't do without it now.

If you ride for any distance at all you will absolutely love it! Mine was out today on a 300 mile trip and I was miserable! I got it fixed now so my wrist will be able to recoup in time for the ride bike...
True that it won't change gears but it's easy to disengage it, downshift, get up the hill and then reset it.
Bottom line, I can't think of a single reason anyone would regret having CC.
