So I just took mine for a ride yesterday after changing the chain and both sprockets (I also changed both tires too).  My cruise control did the exact same thing.  The first time I set it it held for about 5 seconds or so and then disengaged itself.  I set it again about 4-5 more times and each time it would disengage about 1-2 seconds after that.  After I reached my destination, the bike sat for about 2 1/2 hours.  On the way home, I tried again and it again held for about 5 seconds and disengaged.  I tried one more time and it disengaged after 1-2 seconds.

I can't figure out what has caused this.  I will say that I went down one tooth on the countershaft sprocket and immediately upon riding away from the house, felt like the bike was "dragging" (for lack of a better word) under acceleration. I can't imagine that going down one tooth would do this because I've done it on a bunch of bikes before and never had this feeling.

Hello 3sum!

Try to check your cluch cable, maybe it is too loose. Or rear brake swich - it can be too tight if you made any adjustments to brake lever. Try to remember what changes and adjustments have you made before this issue started, most probably you will solve the problem! 

I also had problem with ceuise control until yesterday. It wasn’t problem to turn it on, but I couldn’t set speed and if it was succesed, it could disengage by himself after 100m or 2-3km. Tryed to adjust rear brake swich, disassembled and cleaned front brake swich (there is nothing to clean:)). Found some topics in internet that problem can be in sticking front brake swich and allmost ordered new one, but wanted to check everything once again. And I foun a problem: mu cluch cable was too loose and cluch handle didn’t come back to its normal position, so cruise control sensor was in disengaged position almost all the time. 

PS  all swiches has two clicks - first for cruise disengaging, second for brake light or to say to ECU that cluch disengaged. 
 

PPS  sorry for my english, but in my opinion this is helpfull info
