What? I can't believe you didn't ask which is the best oil!  :o

I will go way way out on a limb and say that this one is best. http://www.mccruise.com/Kawasaki-Motorcycle-Cruise-Control.html (http://www.mccruise.com/Kawasaki-Motorcycle-Cruise-Control.html)
 I've never heard of anyone bad mouthing it after it was paid for.

However, I couldn't afford one so I went with the Rostra (http://www.murphskits.com/catalog/product_info.php?manufacturers_id=64&products_id=369). I think the general consensus is that the Rostra is better than the
Audiovox (or it's clone (http://www.murphskits.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=130_133&products_id=422)), but I'm still way out on that bending sagging limb.

Audiovox.... :)

The McCruise is the easiest to install.  It's the only one that is plug and play but it's not cheap.

Wholly Crap! $1000.00 for a cruise control, I had no idea. Makes my $75 throttle lock seem like a steal.

I tried an Audiovox at first. It worked but I did not think it worked real well. seems I could not get enough vacuum then I went to a Rostra and am very happy with it. about the best 200 bucks I have spent on the bike

At $1,133 US, it better install itself!!

Who has the McCruise? How hard of install for a DIY?

McCruise for sure.  I believe 80% can be completed 100% without much trouble.  My challenge was I unknowingly bought a California model in Missouri...weird.  Then again I still get confused with chinese finger traps!  ;D
