I am looking for info on  a cruise control or the best throttle lock to get.
I know someone out there has some good advice. Thanks, Mark
I should have asked for brand names and where I can get it  :-?

Try Vista Cruise, I think they make one that will work.

If the V65 has the 3/4" handlebar like my older 700cc Magna did then I would get the throttle lock that fits next to the grip as one piece.  I do not like (as much) the one I have on my 3rd gen that has the bar running below the kill switch.

Why is that vs the other?

The throttle lock on my 84 Magna was a single piece that fit just inside the grip. It came with a key to adjust it with.  I have a Vista now.  It's functional but I do not like it as much because it's more bulky and when I grip to tight due to certain riding it digs into my thumb.

White knuckle riding, eh?

I put one of those single piece Vistas on my V45 and it SUCKS!!!!!  can't get it set tight enough to do more than slowly decelerate when I let go of the throttle.  I just went back to the throttle buster and that helps alot.

I picked up one of the ones that has multiple pieces for hte CB900,  I'll let you know how it works.
