    Talking BrakeAway Cruise Control

    http://<a href="http://youtu.be/NEUZ...EUZTGzlXrg</a>Just got the new Brake Away Cruise installed on my bike.

    My local Honda dealer did the install. It took them about 45 minutes.

    They were leary at first because they had some poor experience with this brand in the past, however as soon as they saw it they said it was much different then what they have seen in the past. Not sure if Brake Away redesigned but it works great and the dealer was impressed.

    Push button engagement.
    Push Lever Release OR hit the brake and it releases automatically.
    You can adjust the throttle up or down when engaged.

    It is 6061-T6 Aluminum and made in the USA.

    The design looks clean and it is made specifically for the F6B.

    Here are some pics. I will try to post a video to show how it works also.

    Is there any indication of how it works with aftermarket grips?

    Breakaway does not recommend you use their product with any heated grip.

    Cool

    Nothing wrong with the Brakeaway !!!! Very nice unit...... not sure why it would not work on heated grips.... how would it know the grips are heated ??? Reminds me of my friend, Tom Tipton...

    Read all of my post and you will see what they are 'worried' about regarding heated grips. Sounds like a very slim probability, but 'legal' probably made 'em say it.

    I'm just enough of a "renegade" to try it with heated grips.

    It does kind of sound like a 'one in a million' ~problem~. I wouldn't lose a lot of sleep over it!! LOL!

    I installed one on a friends VTX. Took a while (days) to get his dialed in just right. It's a rather intricate device. If a person has never installed/adjusted one, don't accidently lose your instructions!!
