you are mistaken. You just did not twist the throttle far enough.

First, and with all due respect JC, don't tell me I was mistaken. I twisted the throttle all the way to full throttle and nothing.

Second, took the bike out again today and surprisingly all was working as it should. Acceleration with the cruise set at 60mph worked fine. Don't know why. It sat overnight and had a restart this morning, nothing else changed. Checked for fault codes, none. Can't even guess what the glitch was yesterday - but I was not mistaken.

Anyway, all seems good today. If it happens again I will take it in.

Apologies, poor word choice.

As others have said, yours is not SUPPOSED to work that way. Its not a design defect, yours is having an issue if it is doing as you describe.

First of all, cruise control is not supposed to be used in heavy freeway traffic. If I come to a slower vehicle and feel the need to pass, I just downshift and that disengages the CC and also gives you the power to get around them easier. Just hit resume or reset it later.
