Cruise control set up

[Guest]

This came with a recent parts bike. I've always wanted to try one for my distance trips but I can't figure out where it bolts to. I've taken it off the throttle grip and understand how it connects to the grip but can't figure out where the chrome bar that extends to the left bolts to. Also I'm not 'exactly' sure how to use it, although I'm sure it will become obvious once I ride with it but I sure wouldn't mind a bit of instruction.



Just so everyone know not all the piece are in the picture of course but I do have them all.

looks like it should bolt to thr rear view mirror mount. simply flicking the lever down will clamp the throttle sleeve in that position. flip it up to regain normal throttle control

That's where I thought it would bolt to but it sticks too far out for that. I could build a spacer for it I'm sure but I'm leaning towards the thought it is missing a pieces that mount to the handle bar? I'm sure someone on here has had one of these.

You're missing the clamp that goes with it. It's just a bar clamp with a threaded boss on it & you screw that bar straight into it.
Usually the threaded boss roughly points back at the riders chest/head angle. (looking at the bar about 10:30 / 11:00).

Hey Rob,

I think you're missing a piece. Here's a picture of mine. You'll see another clamp that holds the throttle lock assembly between the mirror and the controls/throttle tube.




Thank you for your indulgence,

Bingo bango, and dang. Not much use without that. I'll have to wrap a few brain cells around this and see if I can get it to work. Thanks guys.
