An early member of the forum—the Spaceman—had one I think and liked it. I rode an ST1300 with one for a week and never really got the hang of it. Like all throttle locks it works well when nothing—gradient, wind speed, your position on the bike, etc—changes after you've set it.

Had one as well and let it go with my '13 model.
My '14 has none.
Alain Lee has Kaoko equipped '17. He may chime in.....

I personally would never have cruise control on my bikes , my wrist do not bother me at all. Even in my cars I use it very little compared with years ago in the North East.

I have a Breakaway on my CB. On the ST I installed a real cruise control from MCCruise.

Yes, I have one of the Kaoko for nearly 2 years now, however, I am not too happy with it. The idea is great, however, in practice, it is not user friendly.
The $15 plastic design mounted on the throttle will do the same job and easier to use.

I am not happy with mine and will not recommend it.
