Hi Jenya,
That's the one I have on my 1991 GS500E, the Yamaha single-throttle cable model.
I've had it on there since 1996 and it works great.
It makes long tours much nicer.
Good luck,
Trwhouse
:)

Trwhouse, What made you pick the Yamaha cruise control?

Hi there,

I chose the Yamaha version because it is the single throttle cable version of the cruise control. The dual-cable version has a different mount.
It bolted right on with minimal modifications.
Best wishes,
Trwhouse
