Actually the name is Omni Cruise and yes I used the rubber band and without it also with different grips but it did not work good far from it, might be ok for others but not for me, only paid around $50 though.

Used Go-Cruise but does not hold speed long, not long at all until it slows down :-(
Not happy with that product, collecting dust at the moment.
I had a Go-Cruise and also wasn't impressed with its performance either. Fiddly to use and took up real estate on the grip. Gave it away when I sold the bike.

I have an Excel throttle on the S10 and love it. Doesn't suck up grip space, a cinch to use and easy to adjust on the fly such as when going up hills.

Was at the bike show (Chicago) this weekend. Go cruise has a new model, I have not seen it advertised anywhere yet. The original is a plastic non-adjustable. new style is aluminum with "adjustable tensioner" looks to be well made. Show special was $30 was planning on getting a Excel Throttle Control but for $30 I'll try this first. Unfortunately it's -8 deg out today.

The Go Cruise is simple to use and I've sold hundreds of them at the shop, but for my bike I prefer the Vista Cruise. Simple to use and install. This is the model that works directly on the throttle tube and only comes in 7/8s.
I know this thread is ancient but if you still have the bike could you snap a pic or decaribe how you secured the VC? I just got one delivered and Im stumped as to how to secure it

For those that are unaware: Using cruise control in the rain can be dangerous...including factory-fitted.

I made an "L" shaped arm and attached it to a screw on the kill switch. I just used some pieces I had laying around and it looks a little crude, but it has worked great for eight years. One thing I would suggest is to take some sand paper and and sand the inside of the Vista cruise until it is perfectly round and grips the throttle tube all the way around. Out of the box the VC has some high spots in it and isn't a good fit all the way around the tube. by doing this, it take a lot less pressure to hold and works a lot smoother.
