Is it possible to get cruise control for the FZS600 foxeye?

most cruise control kits for bikes are universal so yes you can,but all it is is a device that locks the throttle in a set position,not like car cruise control where you can control the speed etc

Every Fazer has cruise control!
Get into a high gear, and give it full choke. You can cruise at about 30 mph!
This is a great trick to get both hands free to fiddle with your gear/gloves etc.

I used one of those horrible deviced in the ebay link on my TRX during a trip to Germany. They can foul the tank on full lock depending on your bike. I just found it more trouble than it was worth.
 Each to their own but I would not recommend using the choke for anything other than its intended purpose. There are reasons but for fear of encouraging the "actually that's not true" brigade I will leave it there.
