Have to agree with all the dissenting voices here. Quite apart from the dubious legality, and potential for such devices to jam or get in the way, it doesn't seem to have much to offer in this country... on the congested motorways I use there isn't much opportunity to leave the throttle in one position.
A cruise control on a car is very different: it maintains a constant speed rather than a fixed throttle opening so you don't slow down and speed up as you go up and down hills and disengages when the throttle or brake is touched.
