Hey man when I installed bar end dampners I realized that the right one could be perfectly placed against the throttle for instant cruise control. Cost me $20 and they serve two purposes.

Anyway

I like the standard Vista Cruise...I made a small brass tab to bolt the "arm" to the top pinch bolt on the throttle/brake assembly. Get the 1" version and save the bar clamp (which you can't use on a Bonnie for the Vista)
You can however put it elsewhere on the bar to mount a Speed Pass, garage opener, or the like.
