MCCruise

Well, definite disadvantage of the below position on my 2004 Honda ST1300 - at max left the controller gouged a dent in the fuel tank.

The recommended position for the Rocket is above the left handlebar, and that works well for me.

It really is a wonderful addition to our big bikes.

Good luck.

Whoever has McCruise what are the top/bottom handlebar mounting advantages/disadvantages. Am considering one during the sale as this weekend while I was out riding the throttle lock I put on was doing nothing but aggravating me.

With the lower position your are restricted on handlebar placement. I can take a pic and post it tomorrow.

My controls just clear the fuel tank and while the bar position is just fine, if I wanted to drop the bars at all I'd have to remove my Garmin mount and set the controls to the upper position. When I think of it though, when I set my cruise control, I just drop my thumb down to the panel. I think if it was in the upper position I'd have to raise my hand up off of the grip to push the buttons. At a 150 MPH this might be a problem. :D

This is probably why some cruise controls that are not integral, such as on the Victories, are in the lower position. The Victory cruise controls are under the right had grip as I recall.
