So, the Fireblade engine has a screw adjuster on a cable for tickover. So, extend this to the dashboard and put a "cruise control" sticker
on
A refined BEC 
Alternatively - just leave your foot on the accelerator as there is knowhere else to put your foot!

Just in case someone takes this seriously, its worth mentioning that this idea is EXTREMELY dangerous...
Best case is that you can put your foot on the clutch to slow down while frantically winding the adjuster in to stop the engine revving to
destruction..
Worst case is locked front wheels while the back pushes on forcing you into a very nasty accident...
If you want a cruise control, get an aftermarket one or buy a car with cruise and a trailer for your BEC....

You're now so laid back you are in danger of being blown over the parcel shelf of your
veehikle... 
Hope you are enjoying the sun! We have had 1 or 2 days so far this month... it even got into double figures t'other day!
Yeah it probably is, had a stinking cold for last 2 weeks, now I am in turkey for 2 days...
Car is ready for its final MOT inspection, just waiting for my landlady's builders to open up the side access so I can take it for its test...
Got a Nicosia traffic police officer helping me who assures me the exhaust will pass the MOT (at approximately 109 Db lol)...
Then he wants me to take him for a blast... lol, brave man... Upside is, he has a "get out of jail free" card
Temps are running between 24 and 30 degrees C in Cyprus now, the family even managed every day in the pool for the last 2 weeks!!!!
