Default FI to Carb conversion question

Hey folks,
Is it possible to convert a 1997 FLHRCI to carb? What would be involved? Thanks for any advice.

Years ago there were companies selling what you needed. Not sure those companies are around any more.

Can google and find a list of parts. Lots of old threads on it.

I did a 2000 RK once in 4 hrs. Had everything laid out and ready to go. Carbed bike ignition harness and module. I used Mik42 carb, manifold, etc. Pump removed from tank and Pingel petcock kit installed. Mount bracket for choke cable, etc. If you search you can find part lists to do it. Or look up the difference on microfiche on site like Ronnie's HD.

This list may not be complete; maybe Tired can take a look and comment on parts that may be missing from the list.
