Yes.

I have a MC Cruise that I will have available at Inzane that is for sale.  I have upgraded to a newer model from MC Cruise.

Love my McCruise control.  Set and forget. Installed myself with only a couple of issues caused by me not the fault of the control.

Just checked out the McCruise website. The unites cost upwards of $800. A little steep if you ask me

Would you spend an extra $800 on a bike if it came equipped or was an option?

I have the AudioVox, it works great. But it's no longer made. This looks to be a copy of the AudioVox .

I have built several AudioVox which seems to fail after a period of time. I have built a couple of Rosta cruise controls that seem to be the best that I have found. They are all electronic with no Vacuum. I aml building one for my standard bike that I am taking to InZane this year. I got the unit just haven't had the time to do it. I hope to be at inZane on Wednesday & Thursday.

I installed the MC cruise system last year.  Should have done it a decade ago.  Works like an automotive cruise system.  Comes set up for the Valkyrie in terms of smoothness of operation.  I've put about a thousand miles on it since and have had no problems.  The guys at MC cruise were more than helpful. The instructions are pretty good too.

     Had the Mc Cruise on Interstate after talking with our brother RJ
years ago.
     I then had to install one on my F6B because the early models Did not come with CC.
 The good thing was it is truly plug and play. As I have gotten older
pain in my hands a wrists is something you just get.

Mark, I installed a Rostra 250 on my Tourer two years ago.  Works good but the installation was challenging.  There is plenty of help here on the tech boards...
