[QUOTE="kstrayhorn, post: 373076, member: 15815"] What you originally posted had me confused and I'm not sure why. I couldn't tell if you were looking for a stiffer throttle or the same resistance from idle to WOT. The latter was my issue. It got so hard to turn on the top end that it felt like there was no bottom end. The solution I posted and taking the handle apart and greasing it should fix that. Not sure what you could do to help with stiffening unless you could unscrew the end of the throttle cable and put a spring in there. I wouldn't know where to start on a cruise control feature unless you modified the spiral grooves somehow, and that would only work for a single throttle level. Good luck [/QUOTE]
