15 Motorcycles With Cruise Control

Put your bike on autopilot and travel with these incredible motorcycles with cruise control

If you know how to drive a car, you probably already know what cruise control is. You get up to your desired speed, set the cruise control, and allow the vehicle to do the work. There's no need to step on the gas, and it makes cruising more enjoyable by reducing the work and helping you achieve better gas mileage.

What if you could have these benefits on your motorcycle? Fortunately, with some modern motorcycles, you can. These bikes come ready for cruising and long-distance riding on the highway thanks to cruise control being included as a standard feature. Try it for yourself with these fifteen motorcycles, or check around for yourself and find a model that you like. There are numerous bikes that have come out for the 2023 model year that have this feature built in.

Updated April 2023: A substantial number of bikes on the market have cruise control as a standard or offer it as an optional component, so it is hard to write about just a few. That is why it was decided to add a few more to a list that needed updating anyway. So, below, you will find the original ten motorcycles with cruise control and a few new ones that have been added.

15 Cruiser: Harley-Davidson Sportster S

The Harley-Davidson Sportster S is the bright shining star of the Harley lineup , yt may not be the biggest bike produced by Harley, but it is definitely the sportiest. This punchy little bike is incredibly popular because it offers the perfect combination of performance and comfort. It has a surprising amount of agility for a cruiser. You may not use the cruise control while cruising around town, however, it will come in handy when you get out on the open roads on the weekend. The Revolution Max 1250T engine powers the Sportster outfitted with traction control, drag-torque slip control, wheel lift mitigation, and cornering enhancement.

14 Cruiser: Indian FTR

The cruiser title is a bit unfair for the Indian FTR, as it has a 1,203cc liquid-cooled V-twin engine that packs plenty of punch. Cruise control is only a natural addition; as Indian claims, this is the "do anything" bike. Thanks to improved rider ergonomics, you can comfortably and confidently cruise around town, commute to work, or conquer the mountain twisties. The base FTR model is pretty bare-bones, however, the FTR Sport and FTR R Carbon have ride modes, lean-sensitive stability control, cornering pre-control, and wheelie mitigation.

13 Cruiser: Ducati XDiavel

The Ducati XDiavel is the Italian version of a cruiser , the overall riding position is more upright and relaxed, a departure from the traditional forward tuck we typically see on a Ducati. However, the XDiavel doesn't tread too far from Ducati tradition regarding technology and performance. In addition to cruise control, it has a ride-by-wire system, power launch, and Bosch IMU.

12 Cruiser: Honda Rebel 1100

The Honda Rebel is one of the most popular cruisers on the road today , it is low and light, and the engine is lively with plenty of torque. Your body will relax into the saddle as you make your way around the back country roads. The Rebel has a fresh new take on cruiser motorcycles with a blacked-out style. It comes equipped with cruise control, anti-lock brakes, and wheelie control. There is even a USB-C port under the seat, making it easy to charge your devices while on the go.

Yamaha ensures riders are ready with included cruise control, electronic suspension, traction control, advanced fuel injection, and rider-friendly ergonomics.

9 Adventure Bike: Ducati Multistrada V4 S

The radar adaptive cruise control takes a little getting used to when first driving this bike because when it senses that you are within a specific distance of another vehicle, it will automatically back off the throttle. Yes, it makes it safer for you while on the roads, but it can sometimes become frustrating when trying to reach your destination.

There are three ride modes, plenty of rider aides, and cruise control.

It is a motorcycle designed with all the tech that could be imagined at a surprisingly low entry-level price. It has a 74 horsepower liquid-cooled engine that can push out up to 50.2 pound-feet of torque at 6,500 RPM.

6 Sport Bike: Kawasaki ZX-10R

The Kawasaki ZX-10R may stem from Kawasaki's years of racing experience, but it shines on the road too , this liter bike has a laundry list of features, making it a great value.

The Yamaha FJR1300 proves you can still have fun riding a touring bike , the cruise control feature is one of the simpler features on this bike.

The integrated luggage system has a quick-release system, making packing and traveling easier. A nice touch is the fairing glove box. This hidden compartment also has a 12V outlet inside.

Key Highlights of Cruiser Bikes

About cruiser bikes.

Due to their unique design and posture, cruiser bikes are a lot of fun to ride. In Western nations, these motorcycles have a devoted following. However, many of us in India are concerned about the bike's city rideability and practicality. We believe that everyone who enjoys lengthy voyages and seeing new places should give cruisers utmost importance.

If you are a beginner or new to riding a motorbike, you will find cruiser bikes to be more comfortable. They have a low center of gravity and a low seat height, making them easy for beginners. Also, because they aren't usually high-revving machines, the acceleration is smooth and linear, which will instill trust in you.

Are they, however, anything that other purchasers should think about? Even if you aren't a wanderer, this piece will persuade you that they are worth considering!

Selecting the Best Cruiser Bike in India

Most individuals use cruiser bikes for long-distance commutes, which can range from 200 km to 500 km in a day. As a result, manufacturers provide varied engine capacity for cruisers based on the distance travelled.

Types Of Cruiser Bikes

• Entry-level : Smaller-displacement engines are used in entry-level touring type bikes, making them easier to handle. There are just a few of these cruiser bikes available on the market. Beginner riders will benefit from entry-level cruiser bikes since they are often less expensive.
• Tourer : A tourer cruiser motorcycle is often well-planted, has a long wheelbase, and is relatively stable due to its massive weight. Road vacations and long-distance travel on the open road are ideal for tourer cruiser bikes. They may, however, be utilized for commuting or riding in the city.
• Bagger : Large fairings and heavy cargo characterize bagger cruiser bikes. Bagger cruiser motorcycles are ideal for long-distance travel with features like heated grips, cruise control, and onboard entertainment. In certain circles of the motorcycling world, baggers are referred to as "dressers."
• Hyper-cruiser : Hyper-cruiser cruiser motorcycle models are cruiser bikes meant to be more powerful and fast than the standard cruiser motorbike. Hyper-cruiser cruiser bikes will feature a high lean angle, excellent acceleration, and cornering capabilities.
• Electric : Even though there are just a few electric cruiser bikes on the market right now, electric cruiser motorcycles represent the future of this motorcycle genre. Electric cruiser bikes, when compared to other forms of cruiser motorcycles, provide the most advanced and cutting-edge technology. Although electric cruiser bikes lack the thunderous roar and bark of a regular petrol-powered V-Twin, they offer plenty of low-end torque.

Popular Cruiser Bikes in India

Things to Know Before Buying a Cruiser Bike

The riding position of the cruiser bike is the highlighting feature of a cruiser bike. It has a comfortable low seat height with inclined and upswept handlebars. The foot pegs are positioned further, making it a relaxed bike for the riders. It is excellent for long-distance traveling.

Usually, the cruiser bikes offer a better range compared to the sports bikes. With a bigger tank capacity, it gives a better range. It means lesser fuel stops too. However, this adds to the bike's weight, but it isn't much of a concern. But a better range on long rides is not really a bad thing.

Riding a cruiser bike through the city is extremely comfortable. Cruiser bikes have been tuned accordingly to get a better low and mid-range performance in India. You ride through the city at a speed of about 60 kmph, and it makes them struggle with the bike's throttle. The engines can give a better torque output enabling the rider to keep the engine cool by lowering the revs.

Traveler Testimony

Testimonial.

Been touring on motorbikes for two decades now but close control has given me a completely different dimension to it. Just returned from a 1,700 kms expedition to Sandakphu and back, for the first time ever my right wrist is as good as it was before the ride. The cruise control mechanism by close control works flawlessly and eases the stress off the wrist multitudes. It even works wonders during crawling traffic and frees the wrist from rotating the throttle. Does take a little bit of time getting used to it but once I got the hang of it there is no going back. Must say it’s a very good add-on and works flawlessly.

Cruise Control for Bike: What is it and How Does it Work?

Cruise control isn’t just for cars anymore.

If you’re a motorcycle enthusiast, you’ll be happy to know that cruise control is available for your bike too.

With a cruise control system, you can maintain a constant speed on the highway without having to constantly adjust your throttle.

This makes long rides much more comfortable and enjoyable.

In this guide, I will share my experience and knowledge about cruise control for bikes, covering everything from the different types of systems available to tips for using them effectively and maintaining your system for optimal performance.

So if you’re ready to take your motorcycle rides to the next level of comfort and convenience, read on to learn all about cruise control for bikes.

Page Contents

What is Cruise Control for Bikes?

Cruise control for bikes is a system that allows you to maintain a steady speed without having to constantly adjust the throttle.

This feature is typically found in cars, but it is becoming increasingly popular on bikes as well.

The system uses electronic sensors and a servo motor to control the throttle, allowing you to set a specific speed that the bike will maintain.

Cruise control for bikes can be especially useful for long-distance rides or highway commuting, where maintaining a steady speed can be both more comfortable and more fuel-efficient.

Additionally, it can help reduce rider fatigue, allowing you to focus on other aspects of riding and enjoy the scenery.

While the idea of cruise control for bikes might seem simple, the technology behind it is actually quite complex.

Types of Cruise Control for Bikes

There are several different types of cruise control systems available for bikes, each with their own unique features and benefits.

Some systems are designed for specific types of bikes, while others are more universal and can be installed on a variety of makes and models.

Here are some of the most common types of cruise control for bikes:

1. Electronic Cruise Control

This type of system uses electronic sensors to read the bike’s speed and adjust the throttle accordingly.

Electronic cruise control is typically more accurate and precise than other types of systems, and it can also be integrated with other electronic features on the bike, such as ABS or traction control systems.

2. Mechanical Cruise Control

This type of system uses a mechanical linkage to adjust the throttle, rather than electronic sensors.

Mechanical cruise control is generally less expensive than electronic systems, but it can also be less precise and more prone to wear and tear over time.

3. Throttle Lock Cruise Control

Throttle lock cruise control is a simpler type of system that essentially locks the throttle in place, allowing you to maintain a steady speed without having to hold down the throttle.

Compared to other types of cruise control systems, throttle lock cruise control is generally more affordable.

However, it may not provide the same level of accuracy and can be challenging to adjust while on the move.

4. Aftermarket vs. OEM

Another way to classify cruise control systems for bikes is by whether they are aftermarket or OEM (original equipment manufacturer).

Aftermarket systems are designed to be installed on existing bikes, while OEM systems are typically integrated into the bike’s original design.

OEM systems are often more expensive, but they may offer better integration with other features on the bike.

When choosing a cruise control system for your bike, it’s important to consider your specific needs and preferences, as well as the type of riding you’ll be doing.

A high-end electronic system may be overkill for casual riders, while a simple throttle lock system may not be precise enough for long-distance touring.

Be sure to do your research and choose a system that’s right for you.

Advantages and Disadvantages of using Cruise Control for Bikes

Using cruise control on your bike can have several advantages and disadvantages, depending on your specific needs and preferences.

Here are some of the main advantages and disadvantages of using cruise control for bikes:

• Increased Comfort: Cruise control can make riding long distances more comfortable by allowing you to maintain a steady speed without having to constantly adjust the throttle.
• Improved Fuel Efficiency: By maintaining a constant speed, cruise control can help improve your bike’s fuel efficiency.
• Reduced Fatigue: With cruise control, you can focus on other aspects of riding, such as enjoying the scenery, without having to worry about maintaining a steady speed.
• Safer Riding: With cruise control, you can maintain a safe and steady speed on the highway, reducing the risk of accidents caused by sudden speed changes.
• Better Handling: Cruise control can enhance your bike’s handling by enabling you to maintain a steady speed while taking turns. This helps you maintain control and stability, making for a smoother ride.

Disadvantages

• Less Control: With cruise control, you are essentially giving up control of the throttle to the system. This can be a disadvantage if you need to make sudden speed changes, such as when passing another vehicle.
• Cost: Depending on the type of system you choose, installing cruise control on your bike can be expensive.
• Compatibility Issues: Some types of cruise control systems may not be compatible with certain makes and models of bikes.
• Increased Risk of Fatigue: While cruise control can help reduce fatigue on long rides, it can also increase the risk of fatigue if you rely too heavily on the system and don’t take enough breaks.
• Weather Conditions: Cruise control can be less effective in adverse weather conditions, such as rain or strong winds.

Ultimately, whether or not you choose to use cruise control on your bike will depend on your specific needs and preferences.

Be sure to weigh the advantages and disadvantages carefully and choose a system that’s right for you.

Tips for Using Cruise Control on Your Bike

Using cruise control on your bike can make long rides more comfortable and enjoyable, but it’s important to use it safely and effectively.

Here are some tips for using cruise control on your bike.

Only Use Cruise Control on Highways

Cruise control is designed to maintain a steady speed, which can be dangerous on winding roads or in urban areas.

Only use cruise control on highways and other straight roads where there are few obstacles or speed breakers.

Start with Low Speeds

When you first start using cruise control, start with low speeds to get a feel for how the system works.

Gradually increase your speed as you become more comfortable with the system.

Pay Attention to the Road

Even with cruise control engaged, it’s important to keep your eyes on the road and be aware of your surroundings.

What is cruise control for a bike?

Cruise control is a system that allows a rider to maintain a steady speed without having to manually control the throttle.

How does cruise control work on bikes?

Cruise control for a bike works by maintaining a constant speed, which is achieved through automatic adjustment of the throttle. Once the desired speed is set, the system uses various sensors and feedback mechanisms to continuously adjust the fuel delivery and throttle position to keep the bike moving at a constant speed.

Some systems also use braking or engine braking to adjust speed as needed. The exact mechanism of operation can vary depending on the specific type of cruise control system used.

Does cruise control reduce speed?

No, cruise control does not reduce speed on its own. Its purpose is to maintain a steady speed without requiring constant throttle adjustments from the rider.

Does cruise control save fuel?

Yes, using cruise control can help save fuel by maintaining a steady speed and reducing unnecessary acceleration and deceleration.

Pick from popular cities, ola s1 pro gets moveos 2 update, cruise control now available.

Ola Electric claims the OTA update will fix issues such as range drop and battery discharge.

Published On Jun 21, 2022 05:20:00 PM

12,832 Views

Launched in August 2021, the Ola S1 Pro promised many features on paper such as onboard navigation, hill-hold assist, cruise control, as well as music playback control. None of these were available at the time, but now the MoveOS 2 OTA (Over The Air) update aims to bring some of those to the fray. Ola also says that the update will fix the range drop and battery discharge issues on the Ola S1 Pro.

Cruise control works between 20 to 80kph

Music playback feature introduced 

Turn-by-turn navigation, live route tracking available

MoveOS 2 OTA update: new features list

1. Cruise Control

Cruise control is a feature usually only seen at the upper echelon of the bike spectrum. Ola claims that it will work at any speed between 20 to 80 kph in all riding modes, except for Eco. 

2. Eco Mode

The all-new Eco Mode, according to claims made by Ola, should be good for a real-world range of 165km. In addition to that, Ola claims some customers have even exceeded the 200km mark riding around in Eco Mode.  

3. Navigation 

Ola has now introduced turn-by-turn navigation and live route updates powered by MapMyIndia. In some cases, a hardware upgrade might be needed to affix the GPS antenna. Ola has said the customers can “initiate a voluntary update request to resolve the concern”.

4. Music Playback

This feature allows customers to pair their smartphones via Bluetooth and listen to the songs while on the go or even while the scooter is stationary. 

5. Companion App

Ola Electric announced the introduction of their Companion App, bringing with it a whole raft of features. The boot of the scooter can be locked or unlocked with the touch of a button on the app. Along with that you also get real-time telemetric data, such as battery status, range across different modes, odometer readout, as well as the software version your scooter is currently using.

While all these updates are a welcome addition to the S1 Pro and help it deliver on at least some of the features it promised, there remain some that are yet to be delivered. These include hill-hold assist, proximity unlock, voice assist functionality, and the ‘Moods’ functionality.

This OTA update, which was originally set to come out in April 2022, will be rolled out in a phased manner. We have the software update installed on our long-term test scooter and will share how it performs in an upcoming long-term review.
