Default Fly by Wire 2016 Switchback

Has anyone looked into converting the push/pull throttle on a 16 Dyna Switchback to a fly by wire? I would like to retrofit my wife's bike and then check into adding cruise control.

you can as a servo CC.



going etc on an older bike is gonna run you some bacon. :
  • throttle body
  • .injectors
  • air cleaner backing
  • main harness
  • hand controls
  • programming
  • and more

not really a cheap endeavor unless you find all that stuff used (totally possible). street/roadglide trade might be easier in the long run.

many members of the switchback owners site on proboards have installed cruise control to their switchbacks..


average cost sourcing the parts on ebay is around $600..


there is a complete list on the site in a couple threads with pretty much any question you could possibly have that's already been answered
