Accel Plug Wires
Anyone using Accel spark plug wires? Any problems with them throwing codes? Are they compatible with Harley's ION sensing system? Found a split wire on my 103 and wanna replace them with these. Thanks.

I just put a set of their race wires on my 97 super glide and they made a huge difference in cold starting and riding. I don't know what kind of difference it would make on a newer fuel injected bike, and I'm sure the almost 20 year old factory wires on my bike were getting wore out anyways but I would definitely go for it.

'97 Carbureted EVO is an almost entirely different animal than a '15 EFI Twinkie.
The older bikes don't have the ridiculous resistance-based anti-knock system which makes selecting wires troublesome. We (the older bike owners) have it pretty easy in that regard.

Well, this apparently is a question that no one knows the answer to! 
I know the HD anti-knock system is finicky, that's why I'm asking. Even though they'd be free with the gift card, seems like a waste of $30 if they won't work with my bike. I'd like to find out BEFORE I buy them, if possible.
