Re: Stock cruse control
Could you explain what it was that you overtightened?

Re: Stock cruse control
The '07 Ultra certainly has nothing to "tighten" on the cruise control.

Re: Stock cruse control
I just yesterday had a HD Cruise Control installed on my 2005 EG Standard. Works like a champ, and mine does not have the little start shape adjuster on it either. My question is how much slack is there suppose to be at the throttle grip. I have not alot, but more that what use to be there, and I was told that there would be more than normal because of the cruise control installed. Anyone have any idea on the amout of throttle play?

Re: Stock cruse control
There's more than normal with the cruise on a bike because of the roll off switch in the cable. It needs some slack in order to operate properly.

Re: Stock cruse control
I don't get the air temp guage, either. Is it measuring the air coming off the heads to tell me how hot my legs are getting? It can't be measuring the oncoming air from the road, because mine always says it's around 100* even if it's cold out.
(Thread hijack.....) I was thinking about swapping it out for the compass that is supposed to fit in there. Has anyone actually seen one of these? Does it work? I know I don't need it anymore than I need an air temp guage, but at least it might do something remotely useful.
