cruise control for 1200gs

• Add to quote

ok, I have been waiting to see the mc cruise unit, and now I have seen it here, I have heard of folks using the audio vox unit on bike before as well so why would the 500 dollar (oops 678 dollar+shipping i assume) Mc Cruise kit be better than the audio vox which is also vacuum operated but under 100 dollars, I have heard of no complaints on the audio vox unit on other lists so far and they look really similar http://tinyurl.com/ycbs  

I've been looking at these too but haven't ever had to install one. Let me know if you want to do a tech session on this and I'll throw down for a unit for my GS.

For what it is worth.................. I have installed 2 AudioVox CCS-100 cruise control units. The 1st on my K1100LT and the 2nd on a Honda ST-1300. Both units have worked flawlessly. My K11LT was done nearly 3 years ago now and has survived numerous deluges of rain. The kits cover nearly any circumstance for installation with many many parts not used. AutoZone sold these units for 30 dollars because so many were bought, opened and quietly reboxed and taken back for refund when the not-so-apt were confronted with installation. The truth is if you can read and follow you can install one. I believe an in-line engine is easier than a V. The boxer and the V-4 are a little harder to get to the throttle body area for hooking on the cruise cable. It is the best "farkle" I have ever put on a motorcycle. The cc is used on every outting. Period. And, it is every bit as smooth as the oem on my K1200LT. The one comment about the 600 dollar one............. I thought with that price (wopping!) that it would be electro served and electro operated as opposed to the AudioVox that is electro served and pneumatically operated. The latter being less costly since the servo is boosted pneumatically. My K1100LT w/ ecc simply works beautifully The GS operates the throttle body(s) from one side or does it pull from a harness between the jugs? I owned an oilhead RS (96) and I vaguely remember it pulling from a clevis harness between the jugs. If it were at either TB it would be easier but still doable IMO. Best darn 130 bucks I have ever spent on ANY farkle! :bmw:

Audiovox cruise works excellent Just finished a 7500 mile trip, with my 2 brothers. All GS's (2 GSA's and 1 GS) had Audiovox cruise installed, all worked perfectly.... Total cost for each cruise control was about $125 ($89 for cruise unit, plus RT pulleys, spring, ect)

Audiovox cruise See this link for starters; when I have more time I'll try to give more details on installation http://www.motocross.net/bmw cruise.htm  

o-ring as a cruise control I am planning to buy a $2 rubber O-ring seal, and put it between the throtle the housing of the handle. I did it on my KLR and works perfectly. It controls the throttle opening not the speed, which in KLR might be a bit of a problem but in GS not a chance. I wll let you guys know if it works and save you hundreds of bucks

If someone has hooked up an Audiovox cruise control up to an R motor I would love to know how they over came the double throttle cable. On the K- bike it's easy all the throttle bodies are linked in line and you can hook the the cable from the cruise control to it fairly easy. And yes it works great. Set it and forget it. I've looked at the R model bikes and can not figure out how to overcome the double throttle cables. They are all brought together in the cable box is see no way of tying into this box so as both cables are pulled evenly. If there is someone out there that has made this work I would love some direction on how to hook it up. I have a Audiovox unit waiting to be installed. My right wrist can't wait. Just got back from a 4200 mile trip and cruise control would have been great.

Has anyone fitted cruise control to a basic R1200GSWC? Was it expensive?

VanXR nOOb/NooB/noob/NOob/NOOB/ Supporter

I don't think you can get a GSW without cruise control

Plawa ¿ʞO ǝʞᴉq ʎɯ sI

You can, if you get it without the touring package..

attila_66 Been here awhile

As I checked on RealOEM you have to change: 1-Throttle grip (replace) 2-Left combination switch (replace) 3-Set of dual micro switch (add) The rest is software update needed.

I had cruise control on my '04 K1200RS and loved it. Then I bought a '13 K1300S and cruise control was not even an available option. When I bought my '16 R1200GSAW, I was in 7th heaven to have cruise control back. It's a must have in my book for any long distances.

History of Lipetsk

Foundation of lipetsk.

According to one version, a fortified Slavic settlement on the site of modern Lipetsk existed even before the Mongol invasion of the mid-13th century. In the chronicles, the settlement of Lipovichsk was first mentioned in 1283-1284. In 1284, it was completely destroyed and for the next several centuries there was no mention of it.

The village of Malye Studenki Lipskie, located on the site of Lipetsk, was first mentioned in the chronicles in the first half of the 17th century. The road from Moscow to Voronezh passed through this place. Presumably from the end of the 17th century, the development of iron ores began here.

In 1703, the construction of iron plants for the needs of the Russian fleet and army began on the Lipovka River, at the place of its confluence with the Voronezh River. Soon, these plants took the second place in Russia in pig iron smelting. This year is considered the foundation date of Lipetsk.

In 1709, the village was renamed to Lipskie Zavody (“Lipskie Plants”). The traveling palace of Peter I and a number of churches were located here. The rapid expansion of production led to the need to build a unique and largest man-made water reservoir (Lipetsk pond) in pre-Soviet Russia with an area of about 0.7 square kilometers. Lipetsk became a production and logistics center for a large metallurgical complex.

In 1779, by decree of Catherine II, Lipskie Zavody received the status of a town of the Tambov Governorate with the name Lipetsk. At that time, its population was about 6 thousand people. In 1781, Lipetsk received its coat of arms, which depicted a spreading linden tree (“lipa” in Russian) on a gold background, which symbolized the name of the town.

More Historical Facts…

Lipetsk as a resort town of the Russian Empire

In 1791-1803, the Cathedral of the Nativity of Christ, the highest church in Lipetsk, was built. Today, it is still an architectural dominant of the city. The end of the Russian-Turkish war of 1787-1791 moved the Russian borders to the Northern Black Sea region and the need to maintain the Voronezh shipyards disappeared. This fact, together with the depletion of the forests used for fuel, led to the decline of industrial life in Lipetsk.

In 1795, after the opening of new iron-smelting plants in the south of the Russian Empire with a new, more advanced technology for smelting pig iron and steel, the plants in Lipetsk were closed, the bulk of the equipment and workers were transferred to the Lugansk Foundry in Lugansk.

Built for the needs of the plant, the pond in Lipetsk stood out not only in size, but also in its absence of fish. This fact was noticed by the local population. In 1800, Vander, a county medical doctor, reported to the medical board about the healing properties of local mineral waters.

In 1805, a chemical analysis showed the similarity of the Lipetsk mineral waters with the waters of the famous Western European resorts. As it was the time of the Napoleonic wars and social tension in Europe, the resort in Lipetsk gained popularity in the high society of the Russian Empire as a Russian analogue of the Belgian Spa. In 1806, on the territory of the plant and pond, an “English garden” was laid out. Later, it was named Nizhniy Park and became the largest city park in Lipetsk.

In 1806, a big fire broke out in the wooden chaotically built up Lipetsk. After it, the town was rebuilt according to the General Plan with straight wide streets and buildings made of stone and brick. Resort buildings, a hotel, an entertainment hall were built. Noble and merchant mansions were constructed on Dvoryanskaya (Lenina) Street.

In 1862, there were 11,659 residents in Lipetsk. The city had 8 Orthodox churches, 3 schools, a hospital and a post station, three fairs, and five factories producing mainly candles and soap. In 1868-1869, the South-Eastern Railway passed through the city. By the last third of the 19th century, the resort also offered mud, peat, and kumis therapies.

Lipetsk in the first half of the 20th century

In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the industry of Lipetsk was revived, when, in connection with the expansion of railway construction, Russian and foreign entrepreneurs decided to re-use the iron ore deposits near Lipetsk. According to the all-Russian census, a little more than 20 thousand people lived in the city at that time. In 1899, the construction of the first blast furnace of the Sokolsky Metallurgical Plant began. During the First World War, aircraft construction began to develop in Lipetsk.

In 1921, the Lipetsk Drama Theater was opened. Lipetsk continued to develop as an aviation center. In 1923, an aviation school was opened in Lipetsk to train a new generation of Soviet aviators. But the existing knowledge, technology, and financial resources were lacking. That’s why, in 1925, it was decided to organize a secret joint Soviet-German aviation school here. After Hitler came to power in Germany, it was closed. In 1934, the Red Army Air Force Higher Tactical Flight School was opened in its place.

In 1931, the Novolipetsk Metallurgical Plant was founded. Today, it is known as Novolipetsk Steel or NLMK, one of the largest steel companies in Russia. The construction of this enterprise became a turning point in the history of Lipetsk. Lipetsk turned into a large industrial center. In 1939, the population of Lipetsk was 66,644 people.

During the Second World War, evacuation hospitals were organized on the territory of Lipetsk. In total, up to 40 hospitals functioned in the city during the war. In the period from 1941 to 1942, and then until the end of the war, equipment, several shops and a blast furnace of the metallurgical plant were evacuated to Chelyabinsk and were not returned back. About 7 thousand residents of the city mobilized into the ranks of the Red Army were killed in battles.

In the first years after the war, the local industry was intensively restored. In 1947, the first tram line was opened. In 1949, the pedagogical school of Lipetsk was transformed into the first higher educational institution of the city - Lipetsk Pedagogical Institute.

Lipetsk - the capital of Lipetsk Oblast

On January 6, 1954, during the downsizing of a number of regions of central Russia, a separate Lipetsk Oblast was created, and the city of Lipetsk received the status of a regional center. In 1956, the population of Lipetsk was about 123,000.

The regional capital status allowed the city to develop intensively. Construction of many regional institutions began, roads were paved, a large-scale program of landscaping and street lighting was carried out. In 1966, a direct railway connection with Moscow was opened, and the building of the Lipetsk airport was constructed. In 1989, the population of Lipetsk was 449,635 people.

In the early 1990s, because of the collapse of the USSR, a lot of local industrial enterprises found themselves in a difficult situation, failed to adapt to the market economy, and went bankrupt. However, the city continued to develop.

In 1993, the plant for the production of refrigerators “Stinol” was opened on the basis of the Novolipetsk Metallurgical Plant. It was built by the Italian company Merloni (since 2005 - Indesit). In 1996, the second monument to Peter the Great was opened in Lipetsk, which became an important landmark of the city center.

In 2002-2005, there was a significant reduction in tram transport. In 2004, the washing machine plant “Indesit” was built. In 2008, the special economic zone “Lipetsk” was opened - an industrial area with benefits for foreign capital.

Today, Lipetsk is known as a major producer of steel and rolled products, building materials, household appliances, juices, and mineral water, as well as a training center for Russian pilots. The aerobatic team “Falcons of Russia” is based in Lipetsk.

Lipetsk - Features

Lipetsk is located on both banks of the Voronezh River in the forest-steppe zone in the east of Lipetsk Oblast in the central part of European Russia. The length of the city from north to south is 22 km, from west to east - 27 km. The City Day of Lipetsk is celebrated on the 3rd Sunday of July.

The climate is temperate continental. Despite the fact that Lipetsk is located at the latitude of Berlin and Amsterdam, winter in the city is with a stable snow cover, the average temperature in January is minus 7.3 degrees Celsius. Summer is warm, the average temperature in July is about plus 20 degrees Celsius.

Lipetsk is the core of the largest agglomeration in Russia with a specialization in the field of full cycle ferrous metallurgy, as well as an industrial, agro-technological, and aviation center. The main enterprise of the city is Novolipetsk Steel (NLMK), which is the largest steel plant in Russia.

The main supplier of raw materials for the enterprise is the Kursk Magnetic Anomaly, one of the largest deposits of iron ore in the world located about 350 km from Lipetsk. NLMK is also the city’s largest air pollutant, although pollution levels have been gradually decreasing in recent years.

The city is located between the federal highways “Don” and “Caspian” and has a developed network of industrial railways. The airport of Lipetsk is located 15 km north-west of the city center and offers regular flights to Moscow. Buses and trams are used as urban public transport.

Better known as a city of metallurgists than as an interesting tourist destination, Lipetsk deserves at least a few hours of attention. Walking around the city center, seeing its historical sights, walking through old parks and alleys, visiting places that are significant for Lipetsk - one day of unhurried sightseeing is quite enough for this.

Main Attractions of Lipetsk

Peter the Great Square - the main festive events in Lipetsk are held on this square including the City Day. One of the symbols of Lipetsk is installed here - the monument to Peter the Great (1996). In 2006, a light and music fountain was opened on the square.

Need a cruise control

• Add to quote

I came back from Redding to Santa Clara and my right hand was hurting pretty bad. My left was okay, so I think I need a cruise control. I like the one Adventure Designs sells but seems pricey at >$100. Is there a less expensive solution that works? Also, what is kind of weird is there is a kink in my middle finger knuckle. When I extend my finger, it gets stuck, then breaks free. Is this a sign of something serious? (It doesn't hurt). Bill  

Go over to Advrider and read through Gspot. There are lots of options ranging from $2 rubber washers to $1000+ true cruise controls. I have the Kaoko throttle lock and it works fine.  

+1 for the Kaoko throttle lock. it works.  

And see this thread in the Accessories sub-forum  

Go cruise control I am (will soon be) an owner of a brand new triple black GS. I have been drooling all winter long and finally made the move. I presently own a 1200c where I installed a 20$ Go Cruise control. Works really well and so simple. Wish I invented it. I ordered a new one since they come in two sizes 7/8" or 1" handlebar. http://www.2wheelride.com/throttle_pro.html I used to have a KTM 950 and installed a Kaoko control. Works really well but for the price, you can't beat the Go Cruise.  

Kaoko I ended up going with the Kaoko.  

Cruise? On a GS? You need comfort! You need a cruise control ! Buy a car.  

Update I still have the kink in my knuckle from the long ride without the cruise control. I like the Kaoko but it is awkward engaging it and takes a lot of practice to get it set to the right tension.  

$21.50 got a "Go Cruise Throttle Control" deliver to my mailbox. Check it out. go cruise motorcycle throttle control  

This guy was pushing these pretty hard at the USGP at Laguna Seca. He came across wrong for what (I read here) is probably a pretty solid product peace out sds  

Caterpillar tractor o-ring. Less than $3. Google or ebay part # 8M4991  

Kruz Locker After fairly extensive online research and talking to folks I stumbled across the Kruz Locker and purchased one. I have only had a short ride with it since my road is iced up at this time, but it is simple to use and really well designed and constructed. There are three spring loaded detents that in the weighted bar end, and these ride in the track of sloped slots in the aluminum grab ring, so when you rotat the grab ring forward the assembly expands and locks the throttle. Rotate the grab ring either direction and it releases. Simple and robust. Check it out $99 now. The Kruz Locker  

I saw one at the MOA rally from Excel Cycle Werkes, these products are sold through Micatech but the cruise is not on their web page. it is set with a small ball you can set with your little finger, very slick operation.  

Throttle control I purchased the Go Cruise throttler, works great and is cheap in the $25 buck range in comparison to others and I didnt have to take the ends off the grips and muck around,(just carefully expanded the plastic flange over the grip) although I did not put on the silicon ring it comes with, but no matter works fine for what i need it for. Cheers.
