I have used the MC cruise on my 2010 for several years. Pros: installation was easy. I liked each cable "the right length" complete with connector. Control mounts on left, unobtrusive, very good design. Blends right in. Highly recommended. Cost $1000 back when I bought it. Cons: none.

Hi Playwelder - Welcome - Had my 07 FJR for 3 years, and currently bought and installed the MCCruise, and wait for the winter to let go , so it is possible to try the CC out

Welcome @Playwelder ! I am in So Cal, 59 years old, and been riding for 36 years. I used a Vistacruise on my bikes so far. It is an inexpensive throttle lock - not a cruise control - but allows me to give my right hand a break on straight roads or superslabs which I try to avoid as much as I can. There is so much more to see on the back roads, and on them cruise control is of little use.

Wow, don't see Iron Range very often ... I grew up in Mt. Iron and got my first motorcycle in Virginia when I was 16!
