Had my 2020 FXLR which was red painted black, with a gold Harley Davidson graphic.

Never cared for the stock graphic, will have to figure out how to post a picture.

No pictures but I got my cruise control enabled. $70 and a little waiting at the dealership but I love it. The 114 keeps the speed very well (compared to my turbo 2L car) and I really like how I can roll the throttle forwards to disable it.

I usually just tap the rear brake or pull in the clutch a little bit and it disables.
Just FYI, rolling on the throttle doesnt disengage it, it'll let you speed up to pass, but once you let go it slows back down to where you set it.
I think you have to increase throttle for like 15~20seconds before it disengages based on throttle increase.

I absolutely love it for that 1 hand resting riding on long trips. Absolutely fantastic thing to have on a bike.

I'd like to see a pic of your FXLR. My '19 salvage bike was Burgandy. I went with black as well.

I think he was referring to rolling the throttle forward to disengage. Not rolling it on to accelerate.

Yes I know.
Was just letting him know that throttle increase doesn't disengage it for a fair amount of time.
Was actually something that took me a few thousand miles before I realized it.
Something I wish someone had told me when I got the bike, lol.

Nice, looks good. My graphic is the gold with slight radius (Harley Davidson with Motor Company right under it).

Had the chrome covers ( fake oil bag cover) on when it was red, put the stock black ones back on like you have, think they look better.

Added a bag to left side. Well pleased with the leather and workmanship.
