Default 2014 Street Glide problem

Every time the bike is started, I have to manually turn on the cruise control before it can be engaged!

I am about ready to trade it in for a new Indian.........LOL!

Don't start flaming....just a little quirk that I got used to after last weekend.

I LOVE MY NEW BIKE!

I have 2014 SG too and somehow I have been able to live with having to manually turn on the cruise control. Perhaps I am more Manually inclined than you are at this stage of ownership, of a great MC!

I'd take that POS back:-) LOL I hope that's the only "problem" you have. Not been an issue for me since I seldom use the cruise.

The only problem I have with my 14 sgs is I just can't get enough riding time on it. This thing rides like a dream.

The old SG you had to manually flip the switch. I know most of us just left it stuck on. I'm actually more upset they moved the cruise to the left side when there is a perfectly good spon on the right side.

The CB controls should be on the left with the voice command button, and volume controls. Besides, try PTT while twisting the throttle. Ugh.

It will be fixed in the 15 models I'm sure, then you can buy one of those.
