Using Cruise Control

Cruise control on your Indian Motorcycle can be set in gears 3 through 6. To set the cruise, the motorcycle’s speed must be greater than 20 mph (32 km/h). Note that the set speed will vary slightly when riding in hilly terrain.

The cruise control will not resume a pre-set speed if the resulting acceleration or deceleration rate is too high or too low. For example, resuming a set speed of 70 mph (112 km/h) from 40 mph (64 km/h) while in sixth gear may cause the cruise to disengage.

The cruise control will not engage if the brake lights are not operating properly.

The clutch or either brake must have been activated at least once since the ignition was started for the cruise control to function.
