Chuck,
I used to have the same problem years ago. I discovered the Throttle Rocker and have put them on all my bikes, now I never have an issue. Here is a link if you are interested. Motorcycle Cruise Control & Assist - Throttle RockerThrottle Rocker – Cruise Control Assist for Motorcycles...

I am very glad to hear that you are doing OK. The bike can get fixed. Just remember always, they are ALL out to get YOU...every single one of 'em! Please take care of you.
