2016 RG 103HD - o2 Sensors too short
Good Morning Gents, I picked up a used trask nb for my bike yesterday. Got it installed and the o2 sensor wires are too short. Factory the sensors mount down low just before the cat. The trask mounts them higher up near the heads.
I walked over and talked to trask as they are next door to my office. I left not feeling completely confident in the answer.
I am told I need to purchase o2 sensors for a 2017 M8 as they are the same sensor, but mounted up by the head. Then they gave me the Harley part numbers , but told me to verify the new ones are longer before purchase.
Has anyone had experience on this?

Get the M8 Sensors. You do NOT want to try splicing the wiring of the Sensor. O2 Sensors use stainless steel wire and that has to be spot welded to the O2 Sensor and the terminal that connects to the wiring harness. I'd venture a guess that very few DIYer's or Dealers have the tools for this.

Got it solved guys. The dealer near me didn't have the newer ones in stock, so I got a set of the oem ones and an extension for the front one. Harley sells factory extensions for $29. The rear I ended up being able to reroute. Running good now.
