that's the roll off switch for the cruise control on the return cable..When you roll off hard on the throttle, this releases the cruise control.....if it came off your scoot, you've got cruise? the problem is you won't be able to roll off the cruise with the throttle..don't know if it cause's any problems with the cruise engaging not having the switch....

That has something to do with cruise control, if I'm not mistaken. I gave my 07 manual way or I would look it up. The TBW doesn't have that. But my 07 FLHT STD did.

that's for your cruise control, when you roll off the throttle that sensor tells the cruise control to deactivate. i had it on my 07 street glide.

Yes... a safe feature you want. Don't defeat the purpose of this. May want to call them.
