Installing PCIII on 07 Dyna Lowrider - 5/20/2008 12:00:12 PM    davedyna   Posts: 10 Joined: 5/20/2008 Status: offline Hi All, First post to this forum, did a search but did not find exactly what I was looking for--I own an 07 Dyna Lowrider and just bought PCIII, Rush slashdowns with 2" baffle and SE air kit (Fuel Moto). Was wondering if anyone could give me some install tips (first non cosmetic changes and not a pro with the wrenches). I have heard installing the PCIII was relatively straight forward but wondered if there were any tricks or gotchas that would save me some headaches (like, make sure you have black tie wraps handy, or watch how you remount to the ECM, wire runs etc). I have heard some good things about this setup so thought I would give it a go. Thoughts? Thanks Dave Post #: 1

Plus 1 on what shimmon said, the vertical mount is the way to go. I'm able to pull mine up and out enough to plug in the USB cable, but tuck it back in after the 'adjustments'. Like Scott said it IS worth it. Good luck. _____________________________ sig by grubby Patriot Guard Rider Ride Straight, Shoot Safe(or is it the other way around)?

SK, I sent you a PM on those pics!  I love the bike but can't wait to make the mods, think it will make a good bike great.  Probably make the changes the weekend after memorial day.  I will let you know how I make out. As far as the connections are concerned, is it the stock and PCIII connections as well as O2 eliminator connections that need grease and taping?  Thanks again Dave (in reply to hk_shooter) Post #: 7

I am surprised at how small the avatar needs to be on this forum. Dave Thumbnail Image Attachment (1) (in reply to davedyna) Post #: 8

I am a bit partial to blue, though....

Might be able to sneak a bit of chrome after this mod but that will be about it. Notice all you gents that replied here are running spoked wheels.  Was going to go that route but wanted to save some potential cleaning hassles.  Find it much of a pain to keep em clean?
