Tell your therapist you need more guidance in EFFECTIVE communication. We still don't know what two bikes, and I for one, have no idea what an "FTB" is. No matter what it is, I suspect it won't swap between a 1939 Standard and 2020 Street Glide.

Years and models of the bikes would be useful; along with what you would like to do.

That is unless you are trolling, then alll bets are off.

What parts? Be specific.

We have no idea what it is you are actually asking for help with.

What are the 2 bikes in question? (Model/year)

Are they both yours?

Why on earth would you be "afraid"?

Ok, you're right. I just want to know if you think it will work. Fuel throttle body

usually when parts are swapped, a can of worms is opened. 2019 fxbb to 2017 fltrxs. Just want opinions and insight on if it will work and if anyone has done before. FTB is fuel throttle body. I was told my bob has an aftermarket ftb and maybe manifold, so i want to focus on bagger. Instead of buying new parts

own both

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

In today's world, everyone wants instant gratification. In other words, instead of doing a bit of research, as @CoolBreeze3646 has done, we throw a question to the masses, sit back, and watch the mayhem of differing opinions.

Do your own research. Do some critical thinking. Formulate your own opinion. Present your thoughts to either get validated or get a different point of view that you may have missed in research and critical thinking.

It's a simple process that actually yields better results, other than just spinning the mystical wheel of opinion.

Good luck in your endeavors.

thats so awesome. I will review service manual to see what expendables i need to order. Finding out i am not supposed to reuse certain things like exhaust flange when i installed khrome werks hideaway headers and retainer rings while installing slyfox passenger floorboards.

IN THE FUTURE, my posts will be planned to be succinct and specific

Again, thank you all for your feedback
