Still in an endless cycle of mechanical prototyping. I have exhausted the obviously bad ideas (only one of those really) but the detail of the design is tricky. Especially considering what it is (something that opens the throttle) and that it will be self- installed; I have to know it is almost impossible to have malfunction before I can even release the beta version.
That and being side tracked with other interesting things like aux. fuel cells and motorcycle seating. The saddle thing has taken quite a bit of time because I really think there is a better way to sit on a motorcycle for long periods at a time that what is available now.
But thanks for asking- others are interested too. I had expected to have the unit completed long ago but some of the finer points have been very difficult to finalize, especially given the manufacturing tolerances in the original motorcycle (not a jab at any manufacturer, simply that I am trying to fit a precise mechanism to a device that was never designed with that intention). If you look at major mfg. cruise controls you will notice the entire system is designed from the ground up with the C.C. in mind- I believe it can be retrofitted just as well and perhaps even better but not being able to have certain sizes / tolerances within my control is problematic.

Brian, what about that development of yours? we (I) haven't heard much of it lately
