Wow, how fortunate for you! If they were that close to me I would be doing some serious wire/harness modding, like getting rid of 40lbs of unnecessary extra lengths of wire, like all that crap that comes out of the neck hole from the control wires!

Another buddy rewired his entire sportster to like 6 wires or something crazy like that and I had been SERIOUSLY contemplating having him do the same on my Street Bob. With this type of service so much closer to home Im having some serious thoughts redoing the entire harness on the FXDLS to absolutely nothing. I would love to delete everything electronically off the bars.

That may work on a carb’d bike with points, but you’re not going to be able to do that with a modern fuel injected bike with ABS.
