Default CV conversion

Finally changing to a CV. my only problem is how bracket #34 mounts to the engine?/ frame? I have the part but have no idea how it mounts. Any info and/or pics would be of great help. Thanks in advance.

looks like that link won't work. It's the bracket that holds the choke enricher cable.

If no one answers , I'll take a pic this weekend & post.
I'm at work, now.
Cant recall off the top of my head.


My bad. Wasn't looking at year & model of your bike.
Different than my Lowrider.

Ride Safe,
Harold

I can't help answer your question, but I think this link should work. Hopefully others can help.

I never had part #34, when I converted to CV on my 89 FLHTC.

I just found a spot for it in the horn bracket on the left side. Took a pic of my bike for you, so you will have an idea of what I'm talking about. Not sexy, but it works. Horn broke, haven't replaced it yet. :-)

Thanks Daven. I thought of doing the same but the cable runs into the intake manifold on a mock up trial fit. I'll go back and try that again and see if there's a way around that. Still would like to see how the stock bracket #34 fits. That bracket was not stock on my 89 but was on later Touring models.
Hopefully some one with a stock set up will chime in with a pic.

Not sure if this is stock or not, but here's what mine looks like.

Thanks Rivercityslim for the pics. That's the correct stock bracket for the '89 and that's probably what I'll go with seeing as I have an '89 also. I was trying to see how a later model touring choke cable was set up with the afore mentioned #34 bracket.

Mine was long ago modified for a CV, so I can verify that this setup works just fine.
