Bolt Plugs for o2 Sensors??
So recently I installed a Power Commander 5 and for the install you leave your o2 sensors unplugged and plug in a sensor harness to the pcm side.
I want to take out the o2 sensors completly since they are not being using anymore and are just sitting there unplugged.
Does anyone know if a company makes plug bolts that go into the o2 sensor hole in the exhaust, preferably chrome or stainless.
If not does anyone know the o2 hole dimensions so maybe I can look at lowes for a plug bolt.

Cant tell from OP if his are the larger sensors up near the head or the smaller on down the pipe. Think I've seen sensor plugs at Phat Performance as well. Most all online shops that carry head pipe stuff will have O2 plugs. Be sure to put some antiseize on the threads before installing if you ever want to take them out.

The bike is a 09 Superglide. Right now I have the stock exhaust on there with some slip on mufflers but I plan on getting some V&H over the winter and will put the plugs on the new exhaust during the install.
I think the holes are 18mm oxygen ports if someone can confirm that.

If it's 09 and stock, then its 18mm. Dynas went to 12mm in 2012, which is why most pipes will fir 06-11 Dynas, then 12/13. It's all about the O2 sensor size because the frame is unchanged. That being said, if ur using the pcv and bung plugs, you can use just about any set of dyna pipes out there.
Btw, I'm getting ready to go to a 2-1 pipe and will be taking my v&h straightshots off my bike. They are in almost perfect condition, chrome, and have big city thunder baffles already in them. Bung plugs already in too. They sound great, and I love the look of them, but I got suckered into all the 2-1 hype, lol. Anyway, let me know.

pretty sure they are the same size pipe, but the bigshots have the power chamber which is the main difference.
