    Looks like the RT has a 650 watt mag, ours has a 500 watt

    Nope.

    The new RT (if you saw) has an "electronic throttle control" whicH means a "fly by wire" system.

    The throttle is nothing more than a reostat that goes to the computer then the computer opens the throttle. (my new Sea-Doo RXT-IS and Patti's new GTX-IS is the same way)

    So, now the cruise control is a function built into the main computer as it already knows the speed the bike is going and can then set and hold it to whatever speed you tell it to.

    Our new 2009 Sea-Doos have both cruise control and a no wake zone slow speed set as well. They both work great and are along the same lines as this I'm sure.

    So, unfortunatly guys like us with "old school" throttle cables won't be able to put this system on ours.

    My SM5 with its 990 cc engine is more powerful than my Heritage Softail with it's 1400cc engine was. I know a lot of older Ultra Classic/Goldwing riders who are reaching the point where they're having difficulty holding the big bikes up, especially 2-up. I can see this being a big hit with them. All the amenities they're used to, and I think they'll find it has enough power.
