Cruise Control Operation
Theory of Operation
The cruise control is designed to be safely operated with minimum movement by the rider and all
rider control actions are natural and easy.
NOTES:
The rider always overrides and controls the system.
The system will not work at vehicle speeds below 30 mph 48 km/h or above 90 mph 145
km/h .
The system is managed by the ECM. The tachometer provides information to disengage the
system if the engine RPM suddenly increases.
The system also has other components: a stepper motor (controlled by the computer) which
operates the throttle during CRUISE operation, and several internal switches, all sending
information to the computer.
The system will allow rider to increase speed 10 mph 16 km/h or more (depending on how
hard the rider rolls on the throttle and the condition of the vehicle) over the SET point before
deactivating. This feature allows the rider to momentarily increase speed, if necessary.
Rolling on the throttle to greatly increase speed may disengage the system.
