Thanks > in advance for any response. Yup. Put one on my 04 FLHTCI. Took me about three hours, but I'm a hack.

It took six hours easy but I'm a bit slow. My dealer estimated three hours. Even though I was able to get a kit for my bike from HD it referenced the Service Manual a half dozen times so figure that into your cost. Here's a question for the crowd. The throttle lock screw would not fit on the new switch housing so I left it and the friction grip off. Neither were listed in the parts manual. Not to mention the new hole was not threaded. I'm thinking of sealing the hole with some form-a-gasket. Thoughts? Cheers, mb 27

Thanks in >advance for any response. As far as I know, the cruise is only for the fuel injected models. Maybe you'd better check on that. -- Home page: http://xidos.ca

No problems, even though the hole was open all that time. -- Home page: http://xidos.ca |
