    Default NEWBEE, Cruise Cntrol Help

    Hi All, Just bought a 2010 Spyder RSS SE5 3000 miles on it. It's just like new, it has the handel bar risers 4.5 inches, the ones you have to cut the origional bars and fit these on. It also has Kuryakyn grips. I am looking for a friction type (mechanical) curise control that will work with the Kuryakyn grips. Any help would be appreciated.

    Welcome aboard. I too would be interested in what you find that will work with e Kuryakyn grips.

    Cruise-mate works with any grips..it mounts on the cable housing and uses the bolt hole that fastens the cable retainer on the bottom of the housing..

    http://cruise-mate.com/ I have ISO grips andit has nothing to do with the grips..There are more than this that will work, out there,from mechanical to electronic..all prices,all different..This was only $50.00 and easy to install..

    Also see the thread in Spyder Shop Talk under RSS cruise control..lots of suggestions!

    Default Cruise

    I put Throttlemeister heavy ends on my RSS. Take the grip end caps off and install as per instructions. I also use a cramp buster for normal driving.

    Default Cruise installed

    Just an update, I installed a Cruise Mate cruise control yesterday. They are 59.95 including the tap & die you will need to enlarge the hole in your throttle housing. I am somewhat mechanically inclined or at least I can follow instructions. The install took about an hour and the cruise works very well. I would recommend it if you need or want a cruise control. The guy that sells them is very nice and will help you over the phone should you need it. It's nice to see a quality product that works and is made in the US.
