Yep I took a chance rode the bike. It was the demo. They gave me two extra years of warranty. It’s a great running bike Brembo brakes, cruise control ride by wire. Adjustable, forks etc. etc..
I used to use a match book as a cruise control. Jammed between the throttle grip and a turn signal housing on an old bike I had.

I’ve done that before too. I’ve never had a bike with real cruise control that adjusts as you ride. It’s pretty cool and since I’m a UPS worker and have all kinds of arthritis in my hands lol it helps.

My bike has cruise control. Hardly ever get to use it. But when I do, it sure is nice!

Use it if I am on a highway/freeway. I just try to stay off the beaten path and stay on smaller, twisty roads
whenever possible.

Yep it’s a luxury. I never really thought I needed until I had it. God forbid if I ever get heated grips. 😂

Best idea is for a combination of both.
