I have heard of guys using thick rubber band and wrapping it around the grip and the bar end and it will act as a cruise control.

But, I am sure thats dangerous! I wouldnt do it! I mean really is the throttle grip to hard for your soft hands to turn

my zx14 had a throttlemisor, it kinda worked. it was hard to get the bike at just the right speed. and any type of elevation change and the bike would slow down. but it did help on long straight highway trips.

it replaces the bar ends.

Default Go Cruise

I have this on my bike and it works quite well. It's a bit pricey though at $19.95.

throttle control order

You're gonna ride one of your pieces of shit to Tennessee?

Who wants to start taking bets that a thread gets posted about it getting stolen on his road trip?

That might be it too.

Its the same concept as when a polar bear stumbles into an inuit village looking for food. Except the Polar Bear has all his teeth, and doesn't come in riding a 30 year old scooter.
