So I have ordered and I stalled the Veridian Cruise Control for my Transalp. I figured if I was going to put a post out for the product, I should support them too!
I’ve installed and tested the system and I am Happy to report that it works and functions as advertised. Once the install is completed, I took my bike out and set the cruise and it worked!!
Shuts off with a front or rear brake application or if you twist the throttle or push the cancel button.
tracks the set speed within a kph or two. It is so simple to operate. The soft touch control looks like a factory piece and is unobtrusive located next the throttle and brake/mirror mount. If you tour or travel any long stretches of highway to get to the adventure ride, this makes the highway travel vey pleasant.
A manual throttle lock works as well and is a simple and functional option if you aren’t looking for the automotive style electronic cruise.
installation will take a bit of time as you need to remove all the plastic and lift the tank, but overall not a difficult install. Certainly a nice add on for those that are touring.

 

Just returned from a 5,500 k road trip and happy with my Veridian cruise. The engine light stayed on for a couple of days but then disappeared apparently randomly not following a TPS reset. Recommend the switch mounting on the left and thinking about the toggle switch (would make the install a lot easier without having to slide the left grip and controls off). Try softening the EP setting in USER mode if using in hill areas.

 

I, recently, installed the Veridian system on my TA. As BB mentioned, the cruise works as advertised ... very pleased.

I wanted the soft-touch switch mounted on the left. I have OEM heated grips so they had to stay in place. Jackson suggested that some people cut part way through the switch mount so it can open further without breaking, but I didn't want to chance it. A little internet shopping and I found a mirror base mount. Puts the switch within easy reach, and there's room for my driving light switch too.

 

That's good to know. My cruise control is now on it's way to me. I bought the very same mirror mounts with a view to mounting the switch somewhere on the mirror stem so I'm pleased to know that it fits and looks good. Thanks for posting the pic.

 

I was conservative and mounted everything inboard because I wasn't sure the cable was long enough. If I was to do it again I think I'd flip the mount and put the switch outboard of the mirror. I'm pretty sure the wiring is long enough and it would put the switch even closer to hand.

 

Thanks, I'll give it a go when it turns up.

 

I've been trying out a few mounting bracket ideas, this is my final version. It hangs off the left mirror mount.

 

Does it obstruct the Flash-to-Pass switch?

 

Cruise control installed today. Took my time and all went well. I had the same switch bracket as Heavy installed but I cut it down and mounted it the other way round. Havent tested it on the road yet but the LEDs came on as they should when I wired it in. I didn't even get stung for any import duties for some reason!
Fitted a K&N air filter while I was in there.

 

Where did you buy this bracket?

Veridian is soon releasing a new switch for their cruise controll module.
https://veridiancruise.com/2024/06/27/coming-soon-3-button-switch/

 

Initially, I was torn between buying either the (more expensive) McCruise or (appreciably cheaper) Veridian Cruise unit for my 2023 Honda Transalp. In the end I opted for the Veridian Cruise control and accepted the early units' compromise of only having "set" or "cancel" switch and no incremental speed up or decelerate function.
Veridian recently offered a new 3-button switch (to be fitted on the handlebar) and even more recently a new adhesive 3-button switch (see Photo). If you have an earlier control module you will need to update its firmware but I cannot recommend highly enough this option which almost looks factory-fitted. I now have "set", "cancel" "increase 2mph" and "decrease 2mph". Works flawlessly and now has the functionality of the McCruise but is much cheaper. As another aside needs only a tap to the brake light line, the rest of the installation is bypass plugs so can be removed easily and no damage to the original bike's wiring.

I have found the support at Veridian to be excellent. Just thought I would post if anyone still thinking about getting cruise control.

 

I have the original 2 button switch mounted on the left side but this looks like a neater option worth considering.

 

Just fitted my new 3 button Veridian cruise control. Slightly different way to attach using PARTS = 1/ approx 25mm of old handlebar tubing, 2/ handlebar end plug and 3/ 5mm allen bolt & nut approx 35mm long. HOW = Unscrew the switch block and drill a 5mm hole in the top centre of the switch block (be very careful how far the drill goes through). Fit 5mm nut on the inside and screw assembly together. Controller can now be rotated left or right to get best position, plus allows easy access to high/ low switch. Good thing is now controller is close enough to be easily operated without removing hand from handlebars.

 

Nice alternative to the stick on 3 button option, I have. Putting it on the left is easier to set the speed rather than the right like I have where you have to hold the throttle as you press the set button. 👍

 

I have now had all three switch options Veridian offers, and the stick-on Honda specific one is by far the way to go IMO. The original 2-button universal was mounted inboard of the right switch housing and was a stretch to get to with the thumb which made it hard to hold the throttle steady when trying to activate it. The 3-button universal I mounted on an adapter mount off the mirror post on the left side which put it directly over the left switch housing. This eliminated the steady throttle issue, but was still a touch too far away to be able to reach without removing my hand from the grip. Was weary of getting the Honda specific switch as I generally don't like stick-on things, but the placement is perfect and the 3M adhesive hasn't given me any reason to worry after 4 months with temps ranging from 35 to over 100 degrees (F).

 

Did you made the bracket or where do you buy it. Thanks

 

You'll need to quote, or use the "@" to ask your question to a certain person.

Which bracket are you talking about @sboulanger19 ?

 

Have had a similar journey to you and now have the stick on 3 button switch and agree with you completely, only solution that works safely.
