For $20, I might try one for the Heritage too.

I used a Throttlemiester cruise control on my last bike for years and loved it. It is easy to use and adjust. The throttlemiester works by applying pressure to the throttle sleeve there by keeping it in position. What I found from years of use is that once set right I never turned it off.
When I bought my new bike I thought about how to duplicate the same thing cheaply. What I came up with is if you get the right size O-ring between the bar end and the throttle grip there is just enough drag on the throttle grip to keep it from self returning under normal use but not enough to make throttle use seem unusual. In use if you want to go faster twist if you want to go slower twist the other way if you want to rest your hand take it off the grip ..... no brainer.
So there you go bike cruise control for less than a quarter.
If you don't have bar ends the same thing would work if the O-Ring was placed between the control pod and the grip.

My bike came with electronic cruise control... and that is a very nice feature... and a built in GPS... that workis in the rain and it says hello when I go to start it...The only main problem is...."What is cost..." I have never paid that much for a motorcycle in my life!

Used the Go Cruise for 2,500 miles and not a problem. It definitely gave my wrist the rest it needed. It's easy to set but sometimes you have to reset it. It loses its grip and you slowly decrease speed and other times I've set it and ridden fifty miles without having to adjust it. Hey for twenty dollars it's well worth the break it gives your wrist. I wouldn't ride without it now.
